Estudiantes, ranked fifth in the Professional Soccer League, will visit Defensa y Justicia, in one of the four matches that will give continuity to the 16th date of the tournament led by River Plate.
The match will be played this Sunday starting at 2:00 p.m. at the Norberto “Tito” Tomaghello stadium, will be refereed by Leandro Rey Hilfer and televised by TNT Sports. Also as for 25 years, you can follow the Supertransmi de La Redonda (FM 100.3 – Listen HERE).
Estudiantes, has 27 points and has four victories in a row, the last one over Vélez 2-0. While Florencio Varela’s “Halcón” is third with 28 points, behind River (37) and San Lorenzo (29), with whom he drew 0-0 last date and thus ended a series of four wins in a row.
Mauro Boselli, the experienced striker and scorer for a Pincha that adds and grows both domestically and internationally, intensified the tasks yesterday morning at the Country and responded well in each of the exercises proposed by the body technical.
Defensa y Justicia, which also competes in the Copa Sudamericana, will make two changes to receive Pincha as ordered by their coach Julio Vaccari, in relation to the previous match with San Lorenzo: Julián Malatini for Agustín Santanna, suspended due to accumulation of warnings, and the scorer Nicolás Fernández for Juan Miritello.
A tough rival, in a stadium with few happy memories
If there is an important match for Estudiantes thinking about their aspirations to continue growing within the domestic framework, the match with Defensa y Justicia in Florencio Varela is undoubtedly the one. Not only because of the moment of both, but because it is a rival that has always cost Pincha and that currently represents one of the few with a balance in his favor. So far, in the nine official opportunities in which they have faced each other, the Falcon prevailed in five of them and the Lion in two, while in the remaining two they equaled forces.
However, the scenario in question also adds complexity to the task of Eduardo Domínguez and his team, who in the afternoon will try to achieve their second victory in four games at the Norberto “Tito” Tomaghello, a scenario in which the Albirrojo has never been comfortable sense. In fact, Pincha has not won there since June 2016, when, led by Gabriel Milito, León won 1-0 with a goal from Guido Carrillo 20 minutes into the match.
