Cracking match promised in Liniers: leaders Vélez host Lanús | OneFootball

El Fortín, leader and undefeated in Zone A, hosts a rising Granate that comes from a big win and dreams of the playoffs.

Vélez Sarsfield and Lanús will face each other this Saturday, March 21, from 3:30 PM at the José Amalfitani Stadium, for the 12th round of the 2026 Apertura Tournament.

The team led by Guillermo Barros Schelotto is experiencing a great moment: it is the leader of Zone A with 22 points and one of the undefeated teams in the championship. They come from a 2-0 victory over Platense and show a solidity that positions them as a contender. “I see the team more mature, but we cannot relax,” warned the coach.

On the other side, the Granate arrives in high spirits. After a 5-0 win over Newell’s, with an outstanding performance by Dylan Aquino, the team reached 15 points and entered the qualification zone. Additionally, they already know their path in the Copa Libertadores, where they will be part of a challenging group.

It will be an attractive duel in Liniers: a solid and leading Vélez against a growing Lanús, which will seek to make an impact to keep climbing the table.
