Team News

Velez Sarsfield
Independiente Rivadavia
  • Agustin Lagos remains an injury doubt having missed the last couple of games.
  • Roberto Garcia will likely continue in the right-back spot considering Laso's departure.
  • A new coach means team selection will be harder to call in this one.
  • A solid defensive shape is key so maintaining a consistent lineup may aid preparation against the league leaders in Alfredo Berti's first match in charge.

Prediction

  • Velez Sarsfield continue their sensational run of form with a 5-0 away win at Barracas Central sending them top of Liga Profesional.
  • In spite of that, the story remains around Claudio Aquino and Boca Juniors' interest in the key Velez man heading into the latter stages of the window.
  • Four games without a win has seen Independiente Rivadavia return to the bottom of the relegation average table and they will face no tougher test than Velez next up.
  • Martin Cicotello resigned following defeat at home to Platense with Alfredo Berti tasked with steering Rivadavia clear of trouble.
