Leonardo Ponzio is sticking with a trusted group for River Plate's tough trip to face Atlético Tucumán. The Club Atlético River Plate manager has confirmed an unchanged 23-man squad from the win over Independiente Rivadavia, with only Aníbal Moreno omitted.
The match for the ninth round of the 2026 Torneo Clausura will be played on Saturday at 5:30 PM at the Monumental José Fierro Stadium. River Plate arrives for this fixture sitting seventh in the Liga Profesional Argentina table with 13 points from nine games, and in high spirits after a three-match winning run. Their last outing was against this same opponent, a 2-1 victory secured by goals from Tobías Andrada and Thiago Almada.
The team will look to capitalise on its good form to improve its record at a ground that has historically been a difficult venue.
With Sebastián Driussi as the season's top scorer on six goals, River Plate will aim to end the week with another win to close the five-point gap to the leaders. The full travelling squad is listed on our squad page.
