The Argentine Primera Division match between Tigre and Deportivo Riestra is set to take place at the Estadio Jose Dellagiovanna.
Both teams are eager to secure vital points as they navigate the current season, with each side experiencing varied form and challenges.
Recent Form
Tigre
Tigre, managed by Sebastian Dominguez, are currently striving for consistency.
They have managed to gather five points from their last nine available, which is a marked improvement from their earlier form where they secured just one point in their first four matches.
Tigre recently broke a 12-game winless streak with a 2-0 victory over Argentinos Juniors, thanks to goals from Blas Armoa and Nahuel Banegas.
However, their home performance remains concerning, with no wins in their last eight matches at the Estadio Jose Dellagiovanna, suffering six losses and drawing twice.
Deportivo Riestra
Deportivo Riestra, led by Cristian Fabbiani, have also had a mixed start to their season.
They began with three losses in four games but have since won two of their last three matches.
Despite their improved form, they have struggled away from home, losing all three away matches this season, scoring just once and conceding five goals.
Team News
Tigre
Tigre will be without several key players. Brian Leizza is suspended, while Lorenzo Scipioni (shoulder), Angelo Marchese (hamstring), and Tomas Fernandez (knee) are sidelined with injuries.
Additionally, Facundo Ferreyra, Camilo Viganoni, and Pablo Minissale are out due to muscle injuries.
Striker Ijiel Protti is still recovering from an Achilles tendon injury, and Juan Cruz Esquivel is nursing a knee problem.
Deportivo Riestra
Deportivo Riestra's Guillermo Pereira is a major doubt after picking up an injury against Belgrano. Brian Sanchez, who replaced Pereira, is expected to start again.
New signing Alonso, who scored against Argentinos Juniors, will likely lead the attack alongside Jonathan Herrera.
Predicted Lineups
Tigre: Zenobio; Ortega, Nardelli, Paz, Banegas; Garay, Cardozo; Galvan, Maroni, Armoa; Forclaz
Deportivo Riestra: Arce; Ramirez, Torres, Sansotre, Barrionuevo, Goitia; Sanchez, Celi, Monje, Alonso, Herrera
Prediction
Given both teams' recent form, a high-scoring draw seems likely. Tigre will aim to leverage their home advantage despite recent struggles, while Deportivo Riestra will look to break their away losing streak.
A 2-2 draw is a plausible outcome and our prediction.
