Independiente, who seemed to improve his results but relapsed and suffered a hard fall against Arsenal, will receive Lanús today, who intends to settle in the top positions, in one of the matches that will give continuity to date 18 of the Professional Soccer League (LPF).
The match will begin at 8:30 p.m. at the Libertadores de América-Ricardo Bochini stadium, from Independiente, will be refereed by Hernán Mastrángelo and televised by TNT Sports.
The arrival of Ricardo Zielinski revitalized “Red” and the team added some positive results, such as the wins against Belgrano and Tigre or the visitor’s draw against Argentinos Juniors, but last date they suffered a severe setback against Arsenal, who beat them in Sarandi (2-1).
Independiente changed its image and came out of the last places, although the 17 points it added keep it five above Union (12), the last of the tournament.
Lanús, led by Frank Kudelka, has 28 units and is three behind Talleres, which is in the qualifying zone for the next Copa Libertadores.
In recent times, Lanús has become a difficult rival for Independiente, who has not beaten him for seven games with three wins for “Garnet” and four draws.
But the history shows that Independiente far surpasses it after 137 matches, with 61 victories against 33 plus 43 draws.
