River He put it first to face next Sunday from 6 p.m. at the Independiente stadium.the last date of the League Cup against Instituto. Although he has a foot and a half inside the quarterfinals, the riverplatense classification is still not assured and that is why he will have to go all out with the best that coach Martín Demichelis can put on the field.
In the work carried out in the afternoon at the River Camp in Ezeiza, Demichelis began to evaluate variants for the replacement of Enzo Pérez. The man from Mendoza was sent off in the 3-1 defeat against Rosario Central and will miss Sunday’s game in Avellaneda. Hence Rodrigo Aliendro is the one who appears to have the best chance of taking his position. Other variants are those of Bruno Zuculini y Matias Kranevitter and also has the option of Agustín Palavecino.
Another factor to take into account when choosing Pérez’s replacement will have to do with the state with which he will return. Nicolas de la Cruz of his time with the Uruguayan national team. On other occasions, Demichelis chose not to start any of his teammates from the start. AND In that situation are Franco Armani (Argentina), Paulo Diaz (Chile), Salomón Rondón (Venezuela), Pablo Solari (U-23) and Santiago Simón (U-23).
The presence of the usual starters Armani, Díaz, Simón, De la Cruz and Rondón against Instituto will fundamentally depend on the number of minutes they add on this Playoff date. Armani will surely start on Sunday since in principle he will not play against Brazil and In the event that the rest of the field players do not arrive in optimal conditions from their teams, their replacements would be Andrés Herrera, David Martínez, Kranevitter and the Colombian Miguel Borja. But everything will depend on the observation that Demichelis makes throughout the week.
The probable River team could go with Armani; Andrew Herrera, Gonzalez Perez, David Martinez and Milton Helmet; Matthias Kranevitter, Rodrigo Aliendro, Ignacio Fernandez, Manuel Lanzini, Ezequiel Barco and Miguel Borja. NHowever, there are still several days of training left and Demichelis will only finish making a decision when those called up arrive and he can evaluate first-hand how they are.
