Their results have been less impressive at home. In the Diego Maradona Trophy, they have sixteen points from fourteen games. They began the Primera with just two points from the first five rounds, but they soon made progress, winning a match in La Plata against Gimnasia and drawing goallessly away from Independiente.

They started the Primera with five points from the first five rounds, which was a modest start, but they went on a winning run that propelled the club into the top 5. They defeated Defensa y Justicia 3-0 in celebration of this.
