Peñarol will host Boston River this Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Campeón del Siglo for the ninth round of the Clausura tournament, a complex match before traveling to play the duel against Botafogo in the Copa Libertadores semifinals.
After the classic defeat, the Aurinegros added two victories in a row against Deportivo Maldonado and Danubio that allowed them to remain at the top of the Annual with 72 units, two more than their traditional rival.
In the Clausura they are third with 17 points, three less than the albos and two behind their current rival.
The truth is that Diego Aguirre anticipated that for this match and taking into account the first leg duel for the semi-finals on Wednesday in Rio de Janeiro: “We are going to rotate the squad, for sure, because we cannot arrive with tired players for that clash that “It will be tremendous.”
In this way, the Fiera will take care of the eleven that is outlined to play during the week and will place one with substitutes to go for the three points.
In principle the probable one would be with: Guillermo De Amores; Camilo Mayada, Nahuel Herrera, Leonardo Coelho and Lucas Hernández; Rodrigo Pérez, Gastón Ramírez, Leonardo Sequeira, Alan Medina; Facundo Batista and Felipe Avenatti.
It should be noted that Javier Cabrera and Guzmán Rodríguez, who received the fifth yellow card in the duel against the fringes, will not be in charge.
“I am confident that, whoever plays, the boys will respond, as they did all year. It will be a very complex duel,” the coach concluded by saying about an opponent with a great campaign in this Uruguayan.
Those led by Jadson Viera are second in the tournament with 19 points, one less than Nacional and third in the Annual with 53.
They will also arrive with six games without losing, with five wins and one draw, driven by their scorer Bruno Damiani who scored in the last five appearances in the Clausura.
The referee of the match will be Andrés Matonte, accompanied by Nicolás Tarán and Heber Godoy. The fourth will be Esteban Guerra. The VAR will be made up of Daniel Fedorczuk and Santiago Fernández.
