Tigre vs Talleres Match Analysis and Prediction

When Talleres Cordoba face Tigre on Sunday, they will be keen to arrest their poor run of form. The visitors are hovering towards the bottom of the table with a woeful points return from their opening five fixtures with kickoff at 9:30 pm.

Talleres’ poor start to the Argentine Primera Division will be of concern to the club’s management. Since starting the current section of the season in June, Talleres have notched up only one victory, coming on the first matchday against Sarmiento Junin.

Defeats against Independiente and Newell’s Old Boys followed, before a draw against a Arsenal Sarandi and another defeat last weekend to Central Cordoba followed. While average points tallies over three years govern relegation in Argentina rather than totals accrued over one campaign, Talleres’ form will still provide some concern.

Due to their superior head-to-head record, Tigre will be hoping to leapfrog their opponents Talleres in the standings and climb up to the top of the division.

With five points to their name, they also boast just one victory so far, but have been able to fend off unwanted defeats. Two draws so far, including a stalemate last time out against challengers San Lorenzo, does at least show some signs of stability for Tigre.

The hosts will be encouraged by their record against Talleres, as they have not lost to the Cordoba outfit since April 2006.
