With almost all the available seats sold out, San Lorenzo will receive its greatest opponent, needing to confirm the football recovery that it showed last Saturday against Talleres in Córdoba, where it obtained the first official victory of the technical cycle for Pedro Troglio (1-0).
The “Ciclón” registered two draws and three defeats in the first five dates and it is urgent for him to recover ground in the standings, since he occupies the tenth place in Zone A with 5 units, 7 from the qualifying zone for the quarterfinals end.
Statistically, San Lorenzo enjoys a vast advantage in the history of the classic but has not won it since May 2017 when it won 1-0 at the Tomás Adolfo Ducó stadium in Parque de los Patricios, with a goal from Marcos Angeleri.
Since then, five draws and two “burning” victories have been recorded at the Palace, although San Lorenzo experienced joy on that field when they eliminated it on penalties from the 2019 Super League Cup, after equalizing 0-0 the night that Lucas Barrios failed. two shots from the twelve steps, one at the end of regulation time and another in the definition round.
San Lorenzo’s losing streak also extends to the classics with the greats at the New Gasometer, where he has gone 11 without winning. The last success was against River (2-1), with the Uruguayan Diego Aguirre as DT, on June 4, 2017.
Huracán is fifth in Zone B with 9 units, behind the four that are qualifying for the final phase: Estudiantes de La Plata (13), Colón and Boca (11) and Tigre (9).
San Lorenzo is 33 games ahead of its traditional classic, with a record of 77 wins, 43 draws and 44 falls in 164 games in the professional era.
