Cracking match promised in Liniers: leaders Vélez host Lanús | OneFootball

El Fortín, leader and undefeated in Zone A, hosts a rising Granate that comes from a big win and dreams of the playoffs.

Vélez Sarsfield and Lanús will face each other this Saturday, March 21, starting at 3:30 p.m. at the José Amalfitani Stadium, for matchday 12 of the 2026 Apertura Tournament.

The team led by Guillermo Barros Schelotto is enjoying a great moment: it is the leader of Zone A with 22 points and one of the undefeated teams in the championship. They come from a 2-0 win over Platense and show a solidity that positions them as contenders. “I see the team as more mature, but we can’t relax,” warned the coach.

On the other side, Granate arrives on a high. After thrashing Newell’s 5-0, with an outstanding performance from Dylan Aquino, the team reached 15 points and entered the qualification zone. In addition, they already know their path in the Copa Libertadores, where they will be part of a challenging group.

It will be an attractive clash in Liniers: a solid, leading Vélez against a growing Lanús, who will look to make an impact to keep climbing the table.
