Independiente Rivadavia just about did enough to scrape a narrow 1-0 victory over Independiente in Saturday's clash at Estadio Malvinas Argentinas.

Off the back of three consecutive 1-0 defeats between late May and mid-June, Martin Cicotello's men are yet to concede in the subsequent three outings en route to seven points from a possible nine.

Despite sitting eighth in the league standings, El Azul are just four points shy of leaders Huracan in a tightly-congested top half of the table.

However, Independiente Rivadavia must get themselves going at the top end of the pitch if they are to keep up their decent league campaign, as their tally of five goals scored is currently the third-worst in the division.

Atletico Tucuman took another step in the right direction with a routine 2-0 victory over Barracas Central at Estadio Tomas Adolfo Duco on Monday.

Goals from Luis Rodriguez and Gino Peruzzi saw Diego Erroz's men record back to back wins for the first time since January to make it six straight league games without a defeat.

In that time, El Gigante del Norte have amassed 10 points from a possible 18 to move up to 11th place in the Argentine Primera Division table.

A solid defence has laid the platform for Tucuman's upturn in form with two clean sheets on the spin, while only three of the other 27 sides have let in fewer goals this term.

They will now set out to continue their recent resurgence, and standing in the way is an opposing outfit yet to win any of the last six meetings between the teams dating back to 2014.
