Racing Club will receive Arsenal de Sarandí tomorrow in search of a win to reach the top of the Professional League, something that will happen if Atlético Tucumán and Argentinos Juniors do not win their respective matches on the ninth date.
The match will be played from 7:00 p.m. at the Presidente Perón stadium, in the town of Avellaneda, and will be arbitrated by Leandro Rey Hilfer and will be televised by TNT Sports.
The “Academy” is in seventh position with 14 points, two behind the leaders Godoy Cruz, Newells, Atlético Tucumán and Argentinos Juniors, all with 16. A win against Arsenal will place them in first place tomorrow if Atlético and Argentino do not beat Sarmiento and Boca respectively.

Godoy Cruz will visit Huracán only on Wednesday and Newell’s will face the classic with Rosario Central, at the Gigante de Arroyito, on Thursday.
In the last presentation, Racing drew goalless against “Leprosy” in their visit to the Coloso Marcelo Bielsa stadium.
To receive Arsenal, coach Fernando Gago will not be able to count on defender Leonardo Sigali due to a muscle problem that forced him to leave the field against Newell’s after 19 minutes of the first stage and leave his place to debutant Jonathan Galván.
Sigali will undergo the corresponding medical studies to find out the degree of the injury suffered in one of his legs. The footballer who will be located in the central back of the defense will be Galván again, next to Emiliano Insúa.
Another change could also occur in the defensive zone, more precisely on the left side, so Eugenio Mena would leave for Gonzalo Piovi to enter. Facundo Mura will remain in the other band.
In the midfield there could also be a change: Carlos Alcaraz could position himself on the left wing to take the place of Jonathan Gómez, who started against “Leprosy” to replace the injured Emiliano Vecchio.
While in the attack, Gago would take out Tomás Chancalay to give the Colombian Johan Carbonero back the title to integrate the offensive trident together with Enzo Copetti and Gabriel Hauche.
Arsenal, meanwhile, is in 13th. place with 11 points, five behind the leaders, and on the last date they equaled 1-1 against Platense at home.
Coach Leonardo Madelón will make only one change with respect to the team that tied against “Calamar”: Ignacio Gariglio will replace the injured Joaquín Pombo to occupy a place in the central defense alongside Gonzalo Goñi.
The record between Racing and Arsenal records a total of 30 clashes with 13 wins for the “Academy”, seven for the “Viaduct” and ten draws.
