Lanús (11 points) and Independiente (13) have had a disappointing campaign in the League Cup and in the absence of several dates they no longer have a chance of qualifying and to top it off both lost to their classic rivals and locals, “Granate 0 -1 against Banfield and the “Rojo” 1-2 against Racing.
The two have the Copa Sudamericana in mind to “save” this poor situation and next week they will play much of their luck.
Lanús has just won a visit to Wanderers from Uruguay and is leader of Group A, now playing on Wednesday against Barcelona in Ecuador. Independiente, by G, beat La Guaira in Venezuela and is second behind Ceará from Brazil, having to go to Paraguay on Tuesday to face General Caballero.
In the history they played 136 times, with Independiente clearly selling 61 wins against 33 and 42 draws.
