Argentinos Juniors take on the visitors Atletico Tucumanin the round 20 match of Argentinian Liga Profesional. The match will be played on Tuesday, September 20th at Estadio Diego Armando Maradona (Buenos Aires).
Argentinos Juniors are not bad, but nothing more. The Red Beetles, on the one hand, won the Clausura in 2010. But, on the other hand, since then they managed to fly out of the top division and return back. The team looked cheerful in the spring, when it was able to finish 4th in its group of the Copa Diego Maradona, and as a result, only on penalties in the semifinals, losing to Tigra. But within the framework of Liga Profesional, Gabriel Milito's wards still rolled back closer to the middle of the standings. Recently, there were 2 defeats in a row, however, then they managed to win against Rosario Central. But then there was a trip to Defensa and Justicia, and a new defeat 1-2.

Atlético Tucuman have made incredible progress in this league. The Decano only returned to La Liga in 2015. And after 2 years they reached the final of the national cup. But in general, the team shows rather mediocre results. Suffice it to recall the last championship draw, where only 22 points were taken in 25 matches - the penultimate result in that standings. Yes, and in the spring in the Copa Diego Maradona they failed: 11 points in 14 meetings. And only after that it turned out to sharply add, jumping to 1st place in the standings - there were even 6 wins in a row and 8 in 10 rounds. But recent matches show that the players themselves seemed to be afraid of the prospect of taking the trophy. Boca Juniors defeated them, with Banfield and San Lorenzo there were draws. Against Talleres the visitors didn't manage to win either, moreover, they also had to fight back after a loss in the 1st half.
In the last 5 head-to-heads, Atletico Tucuman won only once. Argentinos Juniors had 2 won matches in this segment, including in the spring, as part of Copa Diego Maradona. The favorite is Argentinos Juniors, who plays at home. But Atlético Tucuman still holds title hopes and should at least not lose.
Prediction for the match: Atletico Tucuman to win with +0.5 handicap (X2).
