Team News

Rosario Central
Newell's Old Boys
  • Miguel Angel Russo's departure apparently came as a shock to the squad and it is an unknown how much Matias Lequi will mix things up.
  • Armando Mendez and Rodrigo Fernandez are in a race against time to be fit here. Mendez is much the more likely to come back into the side.
  • Angelo Martino will also return having missed the last match after picking up his fifth yellow card earning a one-game ban.

Prediction

  • Rosario Central are under caretaker management ahead of the Clasico following Miguel Angel Russo's departure with Matias Lequi expected to continue for now.
  • With the likes of Chacho Coudet and Martin Demichelis reportedly turning down the job already, Rosario will hope these distractions don't impact their performance this weekend.
  • Newell's Old Boys will fancy a derby victory given the instability at Central in recent days, although their 4-1 home defeat to Estudiantes was an alarming performance at the wrong time.
  • Welcoming key figure Ever Benega back to the line-up after he missed the Estudiantes defeat through injury will no doubt play a major role in the result here.
