Estudiantes form and stats
When playing at home in the Superliga, Estudiantes have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 7 games. The home fans are hungry for more even though Estudiantes have been steadily collecting points here at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi through three straight draws.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Rosario Central.The manager R. Zielinski will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Colon in only four days.
The Estudiantes fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 11 goals in 7 league matches. Estudiantes are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 5 from 7 matches.
Atlético Tucumán form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Atlético Tucumán so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 2-0-6 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Atlético's last three away games as they have all been lost.
Atlético won their last game, 4-3 versus Argentinos Juniors played at home. An off the wall fixture with masses of goals last time out for Atlético, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that match, will this fixture be as full of joy?

Rodríguez scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.
A 0-2 defeat away at Talleres Cordoba before that.The visitors have scored 6 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. For Atlético Tucumán, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
