Colón seek a favour from Floresta to stay atop Zone A | OneFootball

Morón visits All Boys with a real chance to snatch the lead from Colón. The match kicks off at 8 p.m.

The battle for the top of Primera Nacional’s Zone A will have a new chapter this Monday, and at Colón they will be paying close attention to what happens in Floresta. Starting at 8 p.m., Deportivo Morón will visit All Boys with the chance to once again become the outright leader of the championship.

The draw earned by El Sabalero in Caseros against Estudiantes left the door open for El Gallito to move ahead of them. Right now, the Santa Fe side leads with 23 points, while Morón has 22 with one game in hand.

El Gallito wants to seize the opportunity to go top

Walter Otta’s team knows that the end of the round gives it an ideal chance to make up ground and sit alone at the top. After several matchdays sharing the spotlight with Colón, Morón will try to capitalize on the red-and-black side’s stumble away from Santa Fe.

In addition, El Gallo needs to get back to winning ways to reinforce its credentials in an extremely balanced division, where the margins are minimal and any round can completely change the picture.

All Boys come in battered and in crisis after the defeat to Colón

Morón’s opponent is going through a delicate moment. All Boys are coming off a 3-2 loss to Colón at the Brigadier López, and that defeat led to the departure of head coach Aníbal Biggeri.

With Darío Stefanatto as interim manager, the Floresta side will try to respond in the middle of a difficult spell, as it is battling near the bottom of the table and staying out of the relegation zone only on goal difference.

The need for points also makes this a high-stakes match for the home side, which will look to make its home advantage count at Islas Malvinas and end its poor run.

An increasingly tight table with Colón on top

While preparing for next Sunday’s clash against Mitre de Santiago del Estero, Colón will be keeping a close eye on everything that happens in Buenos Aires. Ezequiel Medrán’s team left positive impressions with its play in Caseros, but the draw did not allow it to pull away in the standings.

That is why the result between All Boys and Morón could once again reshape the battle for first place. El Sabalero has already learned that in this Primera Nacional there is no room to relax and that every point can end up carrying decisive weight in the final stretch of the tournament.
