Arsenal vs Central Cordoba
Sarandi Arsenal weren’t able to take any points on their visit to group leaders Colon last time out, when coach Sergio Rondina fielded an alternative XI that ended up losing 2-0. That result broke the team’s four-match unbeaten run of three straight wins and one draw in league action and also means El Viaducto remain bottom in group A on 11 points. They took five of those at home, all of them across the last three matches at Estadio Julio Humberto Grondona. Arsenal won 3-0 at home over Jorge Wilstermann from Bolivia in a Copa Sudamericana group game on Thursday 6. Coach Sergio Rondina will field an alternative lineup on Sunday ahead of next Wednesday’s big Copa Sudamericana clash at Ceara SC in Brazil.
CA Central Cordoba managed a valuable 1-0 home success over Racing Club last Sunday, with winger Carlo Lattanzio finding the back of the net in the second half. As a result, Gustavo Coleoni’s men put an end to a six-game winless streak of three draws and three defeats in the Copa Liga Profesional. The team accumulated 16 points so far and are sitting in ninth spot in group A, but ran out of chances of advancing to the playoffs after Banfield’s win at Godoy Cruz on Saturday. Central have been confident on away turf this season, having won three, drawn two and lost one so far.
Arsenal with reserves and some tired regulars after some midweek games lately should give Central Cordoba a good chance at winning important points for the relegation table.
