At home, Colon won only one of the last five matches, along with two draws and two losses. Striker Ramon Abila saw a red card at Banfield and is suspended for Wednesday.
San Lorenzo continue to show improvements in the Liga Profesional. Last time out, the team secured a 1-1 home draw against league leaders Atletico Tucuman in a hard-fought game, a result that extended their unbeaten streak to five league games (two victories and three stalematesI. El Ciclon are now on 26 points after 18 rounds and keep their hopes alive regarding the Copa Sudamericana tickets. San Lorenzo suffered a single defeat across their last five games on the road, winning two and drawing two.
San Lorenzo is far from being a brilliant team, but they’ve been quite solid and should take something from this game.
