Central Cordoba vs Defensa y Justicia

CA Central Cordoba had nothing to do against Boca Juniors’ offensive power and succumbed to a clear 3-0 home defeat last Tuesday, That result put an end to their two-match winning streak in the Copa Liga Profesional. El Ferroviario remain on six points in group B and are still threatened by relegation, staying just two points above the drop spot in the aggregate table, occupied by Gimnasia LP.
Defensa y Justicia continue to improve game after game. Last Wednesday, the team played another enjoyable game to beat Tigre 2-0 at home thanks to goals from Lucas Pratto and Nicolas Tripichio. El Halcon made it nine points in the Copa Liga Profesional, having won two and drawn three so far. With five victories and five draws across their last 11 league games (along with a single loss), Julio Vaccari’s men remain occupying one of the Copa Libertadores’ spots in the aggregate table. On a sorry note, Defensa are on three games without a win on the road in domestic action, drawing two and losing one since beating Sarandi Arsenal 2-1 in early July. Agustin Sant’anna and David Barbona are expectedready to return on Saturday after missing the last game. However, coach Julio Vaccari will field an alternative XI ahead of next Wednesday’s game against Ecuador’s LDU Quito as hosts in the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana semi-finals.
All reserves lineup for Defensa so it should be a great opportunity for Central Cordoba to get a win they really need at this moment.
