River Plate faces a tough challenge this Saturday at 5:30 PM as they visit Atlético Tucumán for the ninth round of the 2026 Torneo Clausura. At the Monumental José Fierro Stadium, a venue that has historically been uncomfortable for El Millonario, the Núñez side will look to extend the good run they have built in their first matches under head coach Leonardo Ponzio.
Heading into this trip to the north of the country, Ponzio confirmed the squad list by naming the same 23 players who were included against Independiente Rivadavia. With the notable absence of Aníbal Moreno from the squad, the coach is backing continuity within the group and looking to solidify a starting eleven capable of maintaining the team’s playing rhythm and bringing all three points back from Tucumán.
