It was the second successive draw in the league for Atlético Tucumán this season following the 1-1 draw at home against Colón on the opening day of the campaign.
Colón opened the scoring in the 34th minute but Atlético Tucumán scored the equaliser in the 83rd minute, shortly before having a man sent off.
The draw with River Plate means Atlético Tucumán are undefeated in their last 6 matches in all competitions. There have been victories at home over Brown de Adrogué in the Copa Argentina and Talleres de Córdoba in Group A of the first phase of the league season.
Home form in the Argentine Primera Division shows Atlético Tucumán are undefeated in their last 2 games but they have won only 1 of their last 6 on home soil. There have been 4 defeats in their last 6 home league matches, with both teams scoring in 3 of their last 5.
Lanús make the trip to the Estadio Monumental Presidente José Fierro having previously been held to a 1-1 draw at home in the league by Defensa y Justicia.
Lanús opened the scoring in the 39th minute but despite plating against 10 men for much of the game, they could not take maximum points and conceded an equaliser in the 68th minute.
That result means Lanús have recorded just a single victory from their 6 most recent games in all competitions. The win came at home against Metropolitanos in the Copa Sudamericana and you must go back to the beginning of May to find their previous victory.
However, Lanús are tough to beat and they have lost only 1 of their last 12 games in all competitions. Their away form in the league shows 4 matches without defeat but they all ended in a draw. Both teams have scored in 6 of Lanús last 7 away league games.
Team news and Atlético Tucumán are without the suspended Marcelo Ortiz. Ramiro Cristóbal, Ramiro Ruiz Rodríguez, and Agustín Lagos are all injured.
Lanús travel without José Sand who is expected to be back in action at the end of June having suffered a muscle injury.
The search for a first league win of the season could continue for both these teams come the final whistle. We expect to see both teams find the back of the net but for neither to take command of the match, with the game ending level.
