How Racing and Newell’s arrive
The Academy suffered a last-minute loss due to the injury of Aníbal Moreno, who was going to start following going to the bank and not adding minutes in the fall once morest Gimnasia. It is estimated that Sigali will reappear from the start (he did not act once morest the Wolf either), although it remains to be seen if the same will happen with Matías Rojas, Gabriel Hauche and Paolo Guerrero.
Matías Rojas went to the bench in El Bosque, but due to Cardona’s injury he entered the PT and played almost 70 minutes, more than Gago expected. Therefore, it would not be strange that this Wednesday he goes to the bank once more in Racing once morest Newell’s. Hauche might also be a relief option, following playing as a starter in the last two games, while it will be necessary to see if Paolo Guerrero returns as a starter (he entered the ST once morest Gimnasia) or if Maximiliano Romero will continue in that condition. After this meeting, Racing will play the Avellaneda derby on Sunday at the Libertadores de América stadium.
Newell’s, in turn, comes from a 0-0 draw in the Rosario classic and a 1-0 win over Audax Italiano from Chile. It was in his debut for the Copa Sudamericana. Because Leprosy also faces a series of games between the League and the Cup, Gabriel Heinze will introduce variants for this match. He will do it in order to balance loads.
Beyond the referee and the TV, the possible formations of Racing and Newell’s
Racing once morest Newell’s would form as follows: Gabriel Arias; Facundo Mura, Leonardo Sigali, Emiliano Insua, Oscar Opazo; Juan Nardoni, Thomas Avilez, Jonathan Gomez or Maxi Morales; Matthias Rojas, Rosemary or Warrior and Hauche or Reniero.
In turn, Leprosy would present these 11: Lucas Hoyos; Guillermo Ortiz, Willer Ditta, Gustavo Velazquez, Angelo Martino; Marcos Portillo, Juan Sforza, Marcelo Esponda; Brian Aguirre, Jonathan Menendez and Ramiro Sordo.
