El Rojo managed to defeat Patronato in Paraná and now he wants to repeat against Lobo, one of the sensations of the start of the championship.
After a very poor debut with a defeat against Lanús, Independiente did not show great improvements in the game but managed to get three points from Paraná, where they defeated Patronato by the minimum. Back in Avellaneda, he wants to assert his place against one of the best-functioning teams at the start of the contest.
Gimnasia managed to surprise Boca and was close to beating him at La Bombonera, but had to settle for a 2-2 draw and then “retaliate” against Talleres, whom he defeated 3-0 in El Bosque. The team that Diego Maradona led until his death needs to score points to increase the average.
INDEPENDENT TRAINING
The concern for Julio Falcioni is once again the same as in the previous match between Entre Ríos: Alan Velasco, a figure in the team and absent against the Employer, still has edema in the soleus that prevents him from working normally. Another hit is Lucas Romero, who still could not play in this championship, although for this Saturday Adrián Arregui is already available to enter, probably for Mingo Blanco. The other return in the eleven would be Fabricio Bustos, who left COVID behind and would replace Gonzalo Asís.
The training will be with Bland; Bustos, Barreto, Franco, Insaurralde, Togni; Hernández, Arregui; Menéndez, Palacios and Romero.
GYM TRAINING
The duo made up of Leandro Martini and Mariano Messera have an obligatory loss: Harrinson Mancilla was expelled before Talleres and will not be from the game in the Libertadores de América. The options to replace him are three: the return of Victor Ayala, if he recovers from a knee sprain, the debut of Emanuel Cecchini, who arrived at Lobo a week ago, or the appearance of the youthful Ignacio Miramón, only 17 years old.
With the rest of the lineup defined, the team would be with King; Weigandt, Colonel, Guiffrey, Melluso; Ayala, Miranda; Ramírez, Alemán, Carbonero; Continue.
