Boca Juniors host Lanús in Clausura as search for second win continues | OneFootball

Boca Juniors host Lanús at La Bombonera on Friday 28 August at 21:30 in Clausura matchday seven, chasing a much-needed second victory after three straight draws.

LaNumer12.com.ar reports that Boca could be forced into at least three changes after injuries to Ayrton Costa and Tomás Aranda, with Lautaro Di Lollo and Alan Velasco in line to start. Leandro Paredes also returns after missing the Recoleta second leg and the clásico against Racing.

Boca drew away to Racing at the Cilindro in their last Clausura outing. This will be their first match at the Alberto J Armando since 23 July, when they faced O’Higgins in the first leg of the Sudamericana play-off.

Rodolfo Arruabarrena’s side face a Lanús team coached by Mauricio Pellegrino that have struggled in the domestic competition. A difficult encounter awaits the hosts.

Boca’s possible XI: Álvaro Montero, Dylan Gorosito, Nicolás Figal, Lautaro Di Lollo, Lautaro Blanco, Santiago Ascacíbar, Leandro Paredes, Milton Delgado, Alan Velasco, Leonel Flores, Miguel Merentiel.

Lanús’s possible XI: Nahuel Losada, Tomás Guidara, Carlos Izquierdoz, José María Canale, Sasha Marcich, Agustín Medina, Felipe Peña Biafore, Matías Sepúlveda or Franco Watson, Eduardo Salvio, Dylan Aquino, Allan Wlk.

Pablo Dóvalo will referee, with Germán Delfino on VAR. The match is live on TNT Sports.
