Atletico Tucuman vs Platense Predictions & Live Stream – Cagey Affair in the Argentine Cup
Atletico Tucuman take on Platense in the Argentine Cup, with the article tipping under 1.5 goals for this fixture. The recommendation is based on Tucuman's excellent defensive record, having conceded only one goal in their last three cup matches. Platense's lack of attacking efficiency throughout the season further supports the expectation of a low-scoring game. The selection is specifically for the under 1.5 goals market, reflecting both teams' recent form and attacking limitations.

Atletico Seek Their First Cup Final Since 2017
Atletico Tucuman are having mixed results in the Liga Profesional Clausura, collecting just 17 points in 14 rounds and currently sit in 10th place but still have a chance of reaching the playoffs depending on results in the final two games.
They were tagged underdogs last weekend against Tigre but forced an upset, winning the clash 1-0 with Ramiro Ruiz scoring the only goal in the 72nd minute, while he was sent off three minutes later.
Atletico Tucuman battled Independiente Rivadavia in the Argentine Cup quarterfinals, barely forced extra-time with Alexis Canelo scoring a 93rd minute equalizer (1-1) and then won on penalties.
Platense Causing a Couple of Upsets so Far
Platense's chances of making it to the Liga Profesional playoffs are minimal, occupying 12th place with 14 points after 14 rounds with two games left, while desired 8th position is five points away.
They were on a nine-game winless run (for league games) all until the last weekend, claiming an unexpected 2-1 road victory against Gimnasia Mendoza. Juan Gauto and Bruno Sepulveda were the scorers here.
This is the first ever Argentine Cup semifinal for Platense. They caused an upset in the previous round, beating Estudiantes 1-0 on a neutral venue. Gonzalo Lencina was the hero, scoring the only goal in the 83rd minute just 60 seconds after he was substituted in.
Team News
Kevin Ortiz, Gaston Suso and Manuel Brondo are confirmed to miss this match for Atletico Tucuman due to injuries.
Platense's striker Tomas Nasif is ruled out for at least three more months due to a serious ligament injury, while Luciano Gimenez is also going to miss this match due to dislocated shoulder.
Verdict
Atletico Tucuman's defense has been fantastic so far in the Argentine Cup, allowing just one goal in their last three games. Platense struggled with efficiency throughout the season, so I will back under 1.5 goals for this cup clash.
