Independiente will invite Talleres Cordoba to the Estadio Libertadores de América in the Clausura phase of the Argentine Primera Division on Sunday. Both teams endured a winless start to their campaign last week and will look to bounce back here.
The hosts met Sarmiento in their campaign opener and were held to a 2-2 draw. Gabriel Ávalos and Felipe Loyola scored in the second half in that draw. They are currently on a three-game unbeaten streak in all competitions.
The visitors got their campaign underway against San Lorenzo and suffered a 2-1 home loss. San Lorenzo took an early lead in the third minute, and Luis Sequeira pulled Talleres level in stoppage time of the first half. Juan Portilla's own goal in the 85th minute gave San Lorenzo the decisive lead.
