Belgrano will be hoping to move level on points with the league leaders on Thursday by securing all three points at struggling Tigre.
The hosts sit second from bottom with just a point from their opening four league games and have a problem scoring goals right now.
Visiting Belgrano are looking to make it four wins on the trot in all competitions this week but head into this game as the slight underdog according to the latest bookmaker odds.

Belgrano preview: Looking for fourth straight win in all comps
The visitors have secured seven points from their opening four league games and sit 10th in the table as things stand following a 1-0 win over Argentinos Juniors.
Belgrano have goals in them and that should be enough to help guide the visitors to another victory this week against an out-of-form Tigre side.
Ulises Sanchez is a key player in midfield both from a creative and a goalscoring front, someone the Tigre's defence will have to watch out for.
Predicted lineup: Losada (GK), Rébola, Barinaga, Troilo, Reyna, Rolón, González, Baldi, Longo, Suárez & Velazquez

Player to watch – Lucas Passerini
Lucas Passerini is enjoying his second season with Belgrano after making the move back to his homeland following spells in Paraguay, Chile and Mexico.
The former Tigre man scored 10 goals in 15 starts last year and has chipped in with six goals in 11 appearances so far this season, so you wouldn't bet against the 29-year-old scoring against his former employers this week.
Will Belgrano's top goalscorer add to his tally?
Passerini is in good form right now with five goals in his last eight games and will be relishing the chance of adding to his tally against a struggling Tigre side that are yet to win in the 2024 Liga Profesional campaign.
