Atletico Tucuman managed to bounce back from losing the opening two fixtures in the Group 3. The Argentines got back in the contest for the next stage by beating The Strongest 1-2 away in La Paz. Such result entirely opened up the battle or the second place in the group with three sides level on points ahead of the remaining three games of the competition.

Decano are unbeaten in last four games in all competitions and they’ll head into this encouraged with the fact the defensive line looks much more solid compared to the start of the season. Tucuman shipped just one goal in cast two games after playing a goalless draw at home to Union Santa Fe at the weekend.
