San Antonio de Bulo Bulo has one good and one bad for the 12th round of the Clausura Tournament and the visit to Bolívar: it will have two returns, but will suffer a significant loss.
To play on Monday, August 19 (20:00) at the Hernando Siles stadium against Academia La Paz, coach Thiago Leitao will already be able to count on defender Gustavo Olguín and midfielder Edwin Rivera, both absent from the 2-1 victory over Universitario de Vinto, after each receiving five yellow cards.
However, in the aforementioned match, Paraguayan defender Pablo Meza received his fifth yellow card, leaving a space that Leitao will have to fill.
Colombian Alonso Sánchez and national Josué Prieto are some of the options that Leitao can use to put together his starting eleven.
San Antonio arrived in Cochabamba yesterday and will work out all week before traveling to La Paz to face Bolívar.
Bolívar and two fronts
With its mind focused on the double objective, Bolívar, San Antonio’s rival on matchday 12, has three key matches in mind for the future.
First, they will play tomorrow (20:30 HB) against Flamengo in Rio de Janeiro, for the first leg of the Copa Libertadores round of 16.
On Monday they will face the Cochabamba team in La Paz. The return match against Fla, at home, will be played on Thursday 22 (20:30).
At the moment, the Academy is still waiting to see what the future holds for Roberto Fernández and his possible move to Bulgarian football.
