In history, countless occasions have been marked by fire in which the team that arrived as a point was later benched, leaving the “chair” and all those who took a sure winner for granted.
However, the previous analysis is part of any traditional match and in which it can be done before the classic number 194, in which Independiente leads Racing by 75 wins against 53, having registered 65 equalities.
In the previous observation Racing starts with a clear favoritism and as data that reinforces that presumption it is worth mentioning the locality, the “Cylinder” will be full since the seats were sold out, a squad and team with greater quantity, quality and variants of players and a more encouraging present.
But names do not make a team and the one led by Fernando Gago, despite the fact that, especially in the League Cup, he showed a level of play that was the best in the competition, he has not been able to prevail in the important games, those that defined rankings.
Racing was out of the semifinals of the League Cup against Boca, in definition with shots from the penalty spot and deserving better luck by beating the rival for much of the game, but surprisingly defected in the South American Cup, against a weak River of Uruguay and in Avellaneda, and was also eliminated from the Argentine Cup by Agropecuario, which is floundering in the First National.
Independiente is experiencing institutional chaos and it is reflected in the performance of the team, which due to an economy plagued by debts and the lack of credibility of its leadership, led to scarce reinforcements for coach Eduardo Domínguez.
In this last time they abandoned “Rojo”, among others, Fabricio Bustos, Domingo Blanco, Andrés Roa, Silvio Romero, Sebastián Palacios, Alan Velasco and Gastón Togni and the replacements did not compensate for the lost quality.
Independiente was also left out in the qualifying phase of the Copa Sudamericana, in the Libertadores de América against Ceará from Brazil, it was far from the qualifying positions in the League Cup and the only positive thing is that it settled in the round of 16 of the Argentine Cup.
In Racing, the doubt of DT Fernando Gago is to place Tomás Chancalay or the Colombian Johan Carbonero in the attack together with Enzo Copetti, while the return to ownership of Gabriel Hauche is defined.
In Independiente striker Leandro Banegas (torn) will not play, Facundo Ferreira could make his debut in his place, and it is likely that Domínguez will make several changes since his continuity in office will be played in the classic.
Racing adds 10 points and Independiente seven: The “Academy” wants to celebrate before its public and stay close to the top in the domestic tournament, while for “Rojo” it is a great opportunity to raise their morale after a bad semester and consecutive defeats against Patronato and Platense.
