Kickoff in Floresta!

Colón are getting ready to visit All Boys this Saturday from 4 p.m. at Islas Malvinas Stadium in Floresta for another Primera Nacional matchday. Juan Pafundi will referee the match, and the Sabalero will look to repeat the strong performance they showed in the last round, when they thrashed Los Andes 3-0 at the Brigadier López.

Iván Delfino is once again considering changes to the lineup, mainly due to the return of several players who served their respective suspensions. The coach will also have to replace Pier Barrios, who failed to recover and will miss the match.

Rasmussen returns to the defense

Barrios’ absence will allow Federico Rasmussen to return to central defense. The defender will pair up with Sebastián Olmedo, who will keep his place in the team.

In addition, Mauro Peinipil will return to the starting lineup after serving a one-match suspension, while Facundo Castet would complete the back line.

Lértora regains his place in midfield

There will also be an important change in midfield. Federico Lértora will once again start and will share the middle of the park with Matías Muñoz.

On the wings, Darío Sarmiento will play on the right, while Gabriel Risso Patrón appears as one of the new faces on the left after his good showing against Los Andes.

Bonansea and Marcioni, the attacking duo

Up front, Delfino is expected to keep the duo of Alan Bonansea and Julián Marcioni. The latter is coming off a standout performance in the win over Los Andes and will look to be important for the team again in Floresta.

In this way, the Sabalero would make several changes compared to the last match, although they would keep much of the structure that allowed them to earn three important points in the previous round.

Colón want to keep climbing

The red-and-black team come into this match after thrashing Los Andes 3-0 and sitting fifth in the Zona A standings with 48 points.

Delfino’s team have recorded 13 wins, nine draws, and eight defeats, with 38 goals scored and 25 conceded, giving them a goal difference of +13.

Now, Colón will try to carry their good form into Floresta and secure another victory to remain among the top contenders in the Primera Nacional.
