Barracas Central target top spot with win over Belgrano | OneFootball

Barracas Central will play host to Belgrano this Monday. El Guapo will be seeking a victory that allows them to reach the top of Zone A, pushing back Unión

Barracas Central and Belgrano will face off this Monday, starting at 3:30 pm at the Claudio Fabián Tapia Stadium. El Guapo comes from a 1-0 home defeat against Sarmiento and wants to reconnect with victory to climb to the top of Zone A, while the Pirate thrashed Newell’s 3-0 in Córdoba and dreams of the playoffs.

How Barracas Central and Belgrano are coming into the Clausura Tournament clash

El Guapo comes from a surprising home defeat against a Sarmiento that is struggling in the lower zone to maintain the category. However, it remains as the runner-up to Unión with 15 points and a victory against Belgrano would allow it to rise to the first place in the standings in Zone A, which would give it the advantage of playing in its stadium in a potential round of 16.

On the other hand, the Pirate led by Ricardo Zielinski reconnected with victory last Monday by thrashing Newell’s after being four matches without a win. In addition, it also beat Lepra in the quarterfinals of the Argentina Cup and will face Argentinos Juniors in the semifinals. It is seventh with 12 units, qualifying for playoffs, but has the same points as Huracán, who is 10th. Therefore, if it also wants to fight until the end for the Clausura, it must add points this Monday against Barracas.
