Hurricane will seek to remain temporarily as the sole leader of the tournament when this Monday it visits Atlético Tucumán, for the twenty-third date of the Professional Football League (LPF).
The match will be played at the Monumental José Fierro stadium starting at 9:30 p.m., with refereeing by Andrés Merlos, while Sebastián Zunino will be on the VAR.
The Parque de los Patricios cast will look for a victory that will allow them to temporarily access the top of the competition and put pressure on Vélez, who hosts Lanús on Wednesday.
Huracán arrives in good spirits after beating Independiente 1-0 in its last match, a result that allowed it to extend its positive streak in the tournament, accumulating two wins and two draws in the last few days.
Throughout these dates, the team managed to score six goals and conceded only two, which places it in second place in the table with 42 points, thanks to eleven wins, nine draws and just two losses.
Coach Frank Kudelka faces several important casualties: Hernán Galíndez and Rodrigo Echeverría are called up to his national teams and Fernando Tobio would not play due to an injury.
To replace them, Sebastián Meza will occupy the goal and Guillermo Burdisso appears as an option in defense, while in the midfield, Kudelka evaluates including Pablo Siles, Williams Alarcón or even Agustín Toledo and in attack the trio Mazzantti, Ramírez and Cabral would remain, although Ramón Ábila could be considered for his experience in this type of matches.
For its part, Atlético Tucumán has just lost by the slightest difference against Unión, a result that complicated its aspiration to stay close to the top positions.
In the last four games, the team had two wins, a draw and a loss, scoring three goals and conceding four.
With these numbers, the Tucumán team occupies seventh position with 33 units, the product of nine wins, six draws and seven losses.
Facundo Sava’s team will have the returns of Renzo Tesuri and Nicolás Romero after serving their suspensions. However, he will suffer the losses of Adrián Sánchez, who will be out for two weeks due to a torn hamstring, and Gianluca Ferrari, suspended due to expulsion.
In addition, Rodrigo Melo and Gino Peruzzi have recovered from injuries and are already training, while Franco Nicola continues to recover from an abdominal tear.
The recent history between both clubs shows an even balance, since of the five previous matches in the championship, Atlético Tucumán had two victories, Huracán with one, and there were two draws.
