Colón's two key Primera Nacional matches ahead | OneFootball

Colón will have to recover quickly from the defeat against Racing de Córdoba and face two decisive matches in its fight for the top spots. The Sabalero will host Deportivo Morón this Saturday, Ferro’s closest challenger, and then travel to Mendoza to face Godoy Cruz. They will be two important games in defining its ambitions in the final stretch of the championship.

Morón, the first challenge

The defeat in Córdoba complicated Colón’s situation. The team remains in third place, but its pursuers are getting closer and closer. Deportivo Morón, its next opponent, extended its lead over the Sabalero to four points, so a win at the Brigadier López would allow Colón to close the gap to second place again.

The match will be played this Saturday starting at 5 p.m. and will be an opportunity for Delfino’s team to respond after a poor performance against Racing de Córdoba.

Then, the trip to Mendoza

After the clash against Morón, Colón will have to travel to Mendoza to visit Godoy Cruz, another of the teams fighting near the top of the table and currently close to the Santa Fe side.

The Sabalero has nine matchdays left in the regular phase, and the goal is to finish in the top places to reach the Reducido with home-field advantage. Colón has 45 points, while Ferro leads with 53, and it will have to defend its place against the teams coming from behind.

In addition, Ignacio Lago finished the last match with a muscle issue and was substituted as a precaution. Meanwhile, Gabriel Risso Patrón is still recovering from a tear in the soleus muscle.

The next two matches will be crucial for Colón. Beating Morón and getting a good result against Godoy Cruz could give the team new momentum in the fight for the top places.
