Tigre Team News
The Tigre team lost at home in the last round of the Argentine Liga Profesional with a score of 0:1 against Barracas Central. The only goal of the match was scored by the visiting team in the 90th minute, securing their victory. Despite being statistically the better team in this duel, the result was not in favor of the home side.
Currently, they are in the 21st position on the table with 28 points, ten points ahead of the last-placed team, Arsenal Sarandi. In the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana, they finished in the second position behind Sao Paulo and ahead of Tolima and Puerta Cabella. In their last six matches in all competitions, they have managed only one win and suffered five defeats.
After their first-leg failure and another loss over the weekend, Tigre might make changes on Thursday evening, with wingers Blas Armoa and Agustin Obando expected to be recalled to the starting lineup. Leading the attack will be their top scorer, Mateo Retegui, while Lucas Menossi will captain the team from the midfield. It is expected that Tigre’s center-back, Victor Cabrera, will miss the second leg due to injury, and the final decision will depend on the coach’s choice.

Libertad Team News
In the previous round of the most robust Paraguayan competition, Libertad defeated Guarani away with a score of 0:3. Oscar Cardozo was the two-goal hero in that match, while David Gonzalez also scored one goal. Mathias Espinoza and Diego Gomez each provided an assist.
Libertad has recorded two victories so far after just two rounds played in the Primera Division. In the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana, they finished in the third position behind Athletic-PR and Atletico-MG, and ahead of Lime. In their last five competitive matches, they have secured three wins and two draws.
Libertad’s midfielder, Hugo Martinez – who recently signed a three-year contract extension, will be sidelined as he recovers from a cruciate ligament injury.
Despite his age, Roque Santa Cruz remains a key player in the attacking line of the visiting team, with Hector Villalba and Lorenzo Melgarejo supporting him in a 4-3-3 formation.

Tigre vs Libertad Prediction
Due to their significantly better form, we believe that Libertad is closer to a victory compared to the home team. However, due to the advantage of playing at home, we cannot predict a “clean away win” with complete certainty. Also, we expect that there will be a maximum of three goals scored in this match, as both teams are not particularly efficient in front of the goal. Therefore, we predict a draw or an away win, with the total number of goals in the match being less than 3.5.

Prediction: draw/Libertad & under 3.5
