The meeting will be played from 7:20 pm at the Julio Humberto Grondona stadium, with the arbitration of Nazareno Arasa (Mariano Altavista and Pascual Fernández will be his assistants) and the televising of TNT Sports.
The team led by Sergio Rondina comes from achieving an important victory over Independiente in Avellaneda (4-3), but the three points were not enough to continue in the race, since they reached 4 units and the leaders of the area, Boca and River, they have 8.
Beyond the mathematical impediment, the “Ass” will seek to finish the competition in the best way, and facing the duel with the “Globo” Rondina will not be able to count on the Uruguayan striker Jonathan Candia, expelled in the Libertadores de América.
The place of the attacker “charrúa” is disputed by Facundo Pons and Bruno Báez, while in defense Mateo Carabajal is in doubt due to a strong blow, but will be waited until the last minute by the coaching staff.
As for “Globo”, their start in the Complementation Phase had been promising, with a home win over Independiente (3-2), but then fell consecutively three times, with River, Boca and Argentinos.
Those defeats left him out of the race and, while he thinks about his renewal agreed to by word of mouth, coach Israel Damonte prepares the team to play on the Viaduct.
In principle, he would repeat the line-up that faced Argentinos Juniors on the last date, although he could try some variant in attack.
The following are the probable team formations:
Arsenal: Alejandro Rivero; Julián Navas, Fabio Pereyra, Mateo Carabajal, Emiliano Papa; Jesús Soraire, Leonel Picco, Alejo Antilef, Lucas Necul; Facundo Pons or Bruno Báez and Lucas Albertengo. DT: Sergio Rondina.
Hurricane: Facundo Cambeses; Raúl Lozano, Saúl Salcedo, Renato Civelli, Ezequiel Bonifacio; Esteban Rolón, Rodrigo Cabral or Norberto Briasco, Santiago Hezze, Franco Cristaldo; Juan Garro and Andrés Chávez. DT: Israel Damonte.
