The “Academy”, with Fernando Gago as DT, is at the forefront and undefeated in the area, despite having equaled in its last presentation against Newell’s at home, cutting a series of seven consecutive wins.
But not everything shines in Racing since, by losing last Wednesday in his visit to Melgar of Peru by 3-1 in the South American Cup, he saw the culmination of a streak of 16 undefeated matches and complicated his classification to the round of 16.
Racing, which had moments of very good football in that winning series, will be made up of a team with substitutes taking into account that on Tuesday a large part of the South American classification will be played against Cuiabá from Brazil, as a visitor.
Banfield also participates in the South American and has just lost to the Catholic University of Ecuador and on Thursday will also have, at home, a decisive match against La Calera of Chile.
As for the League Cup, Banfield depends on a “miracle” to qualify because they must win tomorrow and on the last date against Atlético Tucumán. In addition, they must wait for Newell’s to lose their last match against Gimnasia, and that Argentinos and Sarmiento do not add more than two points and that Defense only wins three, in addition to taking into account the balance of goals.
In history they played 111 times, with an advantage over Racing by 51 wins against 30 and 30 draws.
Likely formations:
Racing Club: Gaston Gomez; Iván Pillud, Nery Domínguez, Lucas Orban and Gonzalo Piovi; Jonathan Gómez or Maico Quiroz, Fabricio Domínguez and Carlos Alcaraz; Edwin Cardona; Benjamin Garré and Javier Correa. DT: Fernando Gago.
