📋 Team News: River Plate
Matías Suárez (Knee Injury), Matías Kranevitter (Ankle Fracture), David Martínez (Patella problems) and Bruno Zuculini (Partial damage to the cruciate ligament) aren’t available for River Plate manager Martín Demichelis.
In all likelihood, Los Millonarios could use the 4-2-3-1 formation this time, handing starts to Franco Armani, Robert Rojas, L. Gonzalez Pirez, Enzo Díaz, Milton Casco, Nicolás De La Cruz, Enzo Pérez, Esequiel Barco, Ignacio Fernandez, J. Antonio Paradela and Salomon Rondon.
🗞️ Team News: Godoy Cruz
From a largely full-strength group, there is just the one fitness worry for the Godoy Cruz gaffer Diego Flores to be concerned about. Gianluca Ferrari (Ruptured cruciate ligament) won’t be playing here.
From our viewpoint, Tomba could decide to utilise a 4-2-3-1 system, starting Diego Rodríguez, Pier Barrios, Lucas Arce, Federico Rasmussen, Thomas Galdames, Gonzalo Abrego, Bruno Leyes, Hernán López, Nicolás Fernández, Tomás Conechny and Salomón Rodríguez.
🔮 Prediction
River Plate certainly have the ability to score a couple of goals when they face Godoy Cruz, who might well find it a difficult task scoring a goal of their own.
We reckon that it will be a comfortable 2-0 winning margin for River Plate come full-time.
