Deportivo Madryn v Godoy Cruz: the postponed match Colón are eyeing | OneFootball

This Tuesday at 7:00 p.m., Deportivo Madryn and Godoy Cruz will bring the Primera Nacional schedule up to date when they play the postponed match corresponding to Round 21. The venue for the clash will be the Abel Sastre Stadium in Chubut, where two teams level on 40 points in the standings will face off, both needing a win to strengthen their places in the qualification spots for the Reducido, while directly battling for fifth place in Zone A.

The match carries enormous strategic importance for both sides. The home team, El Aurinegro, comes in with spirits high after putting together a six-match unbeaten run, a streak that includes an emphatic 4-0 thrashing of Mitre de Santiago del Estero. On the other side, the Mendoza-based Expreso — currently in sixth place — arrives after earning a vital away win over Acassuso in Buenos Aires.

Putting together an injury-hit Tomba

Godoy Cruz coach Pablo De Muner had serious difficulties putting together his starting eleven due to a large number of absences in the spine of the team. In midfield, he will be without Uruguayan Vicente Poggi (sent off last round) and Gastón Gil Romero (suspended after reaching ten yellow cards). In addition, defender Tomás Rossi and forwards Martín Pino and Nahuel Ulariaga were left out due to physical issues. Faced with the urgency of the situation, the coach unexpectedly called up Valverde and Alberti to join the squad in Buenos Aires before heading south.

Luis García’s team will look to take advantage of the wear and tear from their rival’s long trip by repeating the core lineup that shone last Friday, with the attack led by Juan Peinipil and Luis Silba. This match will be only the second meeting between the two clubs, with the only previous encounter being the 0-0 draw on March 1 at the Feliciano Gambarte in Mendoza. The match will be officiated by Nahuel Viñas, assisted by Diego Martín and Joaquín Badano.
