Millionaire lineup to return ownership of injured team;Marcos Acuña – He has already increased his playing time against Velez and Fabricio Bustos – who was sacked today – whether the coach is betting on a system with three centre-backs as he did at Boca It remains to be seen what happens on similar systems. 3-4-2-1 might be a very good choice, with the following possible names: Franco Armani, González Pírez, Germán Pezzella and Paulo Díaz; Bustos, Matthias Kranevert, Santiago Simone Acuña; Nacho Fernandez and Collidio; Miguel Borja. Now, if one of the centre-backs comes on, Fonseca has the chance to play, and his double number 5 formation becomes a 4-4-2.

The coach highlighted in his press conference his outstanding performances as a visitor against Talleres (1-0) and Colo-Colo (1-1). River Plate played 4 games in the Copa Libertadores and achieved 3 wins and 1 draw. He feels stronger in this regard than in local competitions. The tension there has subsided and that’s why they have drawn 6, won 2 and lost 1.

A first straight win in a head-to-head clash with a Brazilian side may be an encouraging precedent, showing that history has turned 180 degrees since Gallardo took charge. Before beating Cruzeiro 3-0 away in 2015, there was a 50-year elimination rate of nearly 30%. Before that historic match, he played 26 games with Brazilian teams in South America: 17 eliminations, only 9 wins, and Gallardo made 4 appearances as a player. However, as a coach, he eliminated them 6 times in 9 games.
Another strength is that he is ruthless in his definition of the home team. The semi-finals will end on the 29th at the Monumental Más Stadium and the final will be held on November 30 at the same stadium. Gallardo’s River Plate has met South American football teams at home 16 times, winning 14 of them and losing only 2 (Velees in 2022 and Independiente Valais in 2016).
Finally, looking at historical standards, River Plate has made 17 appearances in its 38 appearances in the competition. River Plate have reached this stage before the final 16 times so far, with the Millionaires surpassing them seven times, in 1966, 1976 and 2019 (where they finished runners-up) and in 1986, 1996 and 2015 and 2018 (when they won the championship). As for Gallardo and his numbers, this is his fifth semi-final, having made three consecutive passes in the finals against Guaraní in 2015, Gremio in 2018 and Boca in 2019 final and was eliminated against Lanus in 2017.
