Boca received good news during this morning's practice at the Ezeiza facility: the team added two players to the training session in preparation for Central because Alan Velasco and Marco Pellegrino trained with the rest of their teammates and will travel to Rosario.
Still under the guidance of Claudio Úbeda due to Miguel Ángel Russo's absence for medical reasons, the players completed another training session at the Ezeiza facility. The practice had several updates, including the return of Leandro Paredes from Ecuador, where he played his last match with the Argentine National Team for the South American Qualifiers that have concluded.
Boca trained in Ezeiza.
In addition to the return of the world champion, who didn't take a break and went straight to training, Boca welcomed back Alan Velasco and Marco Pellegrino. The former had a muscle discomfort last week and underwent medical tests, which showed no injury, but the pain persisted until today when he was able to complete the training normally.
The former Milan player, on the other hand, has recovered from a grade 2 injury to the left external obturator and is fit to play. However, Ayrton Costa is expected to remain in the central defense alongside Lautaro Di Lollo.
The Xeneize would present themselves at the Gigante de Arroyito with only one change compared to those who started the victory over Aldosivi. The change is necessary due to Agustín Marchesín's injury. The position between the posts would be taken by Leandro Brey.
Boca would make only one change.
Thus, Boca would line up with: Leandro Brey; Juan Barinaga, Lautaro Di Lollo, Ayrton Costa, Lautaro Blanco; Brian Aguirre, Leandro Paredes, Rodrigo Battaglia, Carlos Palacios; Miguel Merentiel and Edinson Cavani.
