Tigre visit Barracas Central, eyeing Apertura top spot

Barracas Central will host Tigre this Wednesday from 5:00 PM at the Estadio Claudio Tapia, for Matchday 7 of the 2026 Apertura Tournament. The Matador from Victoria will be looking to get back to winning ways and reclaim the top spot in Zone B, while El Guapo will try to make their home advantage count and climb out of the bottom.

The team led by Rubén Darío Insua did not have the start they were hoping for. They are coming off a 1-0 defeat to Platense and have now suffered two consecutive losses, with just 5 points out of a possible 18. El Guapo needs to get back to winning ways to end their drought and start looking at the table with more relief in this first part of the championship.

On the other hand, Tigre is experiencing a very different reality. In the last round, they drew 0-0 against Central Córdoba and remain one of the few unbeaten teams in the tournament. They are second in Zone B with 14 points, just one point behind Independiente Rivadavia. “It was a tough match, we lacked fluidity in the final third. The point helps us stay unbeaten and at the top,” said Diego Dabove, satisfied with his players’ attitude.

Probable lineups

Barracas Central: Marcelo Miño; Nicolás Capraro, Fernando Tobio, Gastón Campi, Rafael Barrios, Rodrigo Insua; Tomás Porra, Iván Guaraz, Iván Tapia; Gonzalo Morales, Facundo Bruera. Coach: Rubén Darío Insua.
