Colon suffered their third defeat in four league rounds last time out when they were beaten by Independiente 2-0 away. Coach Pablo Lavallen doesn’t seem to find his men’s best version as the team continues to face trouble in the league, having accumulated only three points so far. El Sabalero is only one point above the relegation zone. Colon played two Superliga matches at home this season, losing 1-0 to Patronato and beating Gimnasia LP 2-1.
Rosario Central couldn’t beat relegation contenders Patronato at home in spite of leading 1-0 against ten men at one point. Although the team remain unbeaten, the 1-1 draw prevented them from climbing to the top of the table: El Canalla is now on eight points, five behind leaders San Lorenzo.
Big relegation match between two teams in trouble. Rosario Central is in a better moment while Colon keeps struggling in the league and their minds are in Copa Sudamericana where they are in semifinals for the first time ever.
