Riverdirected by Martin Demichelishas had poor results in its last few matches, which made it lose ground to the leaders. In the fifth match, before the Copa América break, it lost to Deportivo Riestra, while this last weekend it only managed a draw at the Monumental against Lanús.
This is why they are seventh in the table with 10 points, four points behind the leaders, Unión and Huracán.
The main news for River is that it will be able to count on 15 thousand “neutral” fans, while in terms of football, goalkeeper Franco Armani and forward Miguel Borja will return to the starting lineup, replacing Jeremías Ledesma and Pablo Solari or Facundo Colidio, respectively.
Godoy Cruz, for its part, suffered a tough defeat against Racing in its return to activity and fell 3-0.
With Daniel Oldrá as technical director, they are, along with Central Córdoba de Santiago del Estero, the only ones that did not score points in the championship.
The team from Mendoza has a certain margin in the annual table and is even close to the international cup spots for 2025, but it needs to start adding points urgently to avoid getting into trouble in the “red zone.”
