Tigre
- Ignacio Scocco scored the winner away to Quilmes two weeks ago and the experienced striker will lead the line once more.
- Diego Mateo's sending off means he is suspended for the visit of Tigre but recent signing Juan Sills will partner young Facundo Quignon as a double five in front of the defence.
- Luciano Pocrnjic was outstanding in the 1-0 win and will retain his place in goal.
- Pedro Troglio got a new keeper this week when Nelson Ibañez arrived on a free from Racing and he could go straight in and replace Adrian Gabbarini.
- The only other changes from the side that lost 3-0 to Estudiantes will see Martin Galmarini slot in at right back and Gaspar Iñíguez earn his first start for the club in central midfield.
- Lucas Janson was unable to have too much impact in the loss, but will be crucial to Tigre on the counter in Rosario.
