Team News

Newell's Old Boys
Racing Club
  • Armando Mendez and Rodrigo Fernandez both missed out on the derby following late fitness tests and remain a doubt here.
  • Angelo Martino is suspended following his sending off against Rosario Central.
  • Ever Banega is out injured as his hamstring problem worsened following a rush to be ready for the clasico.
  • Agustin Garcia Basso and Juan Nardoni both remain absent through injury.
  • Leonardo Sigali is available for selection again as he returned in continental action last time out.
  • Adrian Martinez is suspended here following his red card against Gimnasia.

Prediction

  • The supporter reaction to the clasico defeat to Rosario Central has been the main talking point for a continually underperforming Newell's Old Boys side.
  • Juan Ignacio Ramirez remains the key cog for Newell's with his eight goals so far challenging at the top of the goalscoring charts.
  • Racing Club's Copa Sudamericana performance will have been a major positive, however that will take precedence over this one which hands Newell's an advantage.
  • In spite of that, Racing have balanced continental and domestic peformances well and will hope they can continue to do so here.
