Likely Estudiantes line-up for the final | OneFootball

Eduardo Domínguez is starting to define the starting lineup with one certainty and one doubt. The main news is the return of Guido Carrillo, top scorer and key player for Pincha, who has served his four-match suspension after elbowing Joaquín Laso (Tigre) and is now eligible to return to the starting eleven. In principle, he would replace Lucas Alario.

Pincha traveled to Santiago with the entire squad available, awaiting the final recovery of Gabriel Neves. The Uruguayan midfielder suffered a tear in his left soleus muscle after the match against Boca in round 14 of the Clausura, and after more than a month of recovery, will be evaluated until the last moment. If he is not fully fit, Ezequiel Piovi would remain in the team.

In addition, Estudiantes heads into the decider with a favorable record against the Academia: since Gustavo Costas took over as Racing's coach, León has won three matches, drawn one, and suffered no defeats.

The probable lineup

Fernando Muslera; Román Gómez, Santiago Núñez, Leandro González Pirez, Santiago Arzamendia; Santiago Ascacíbar, Lucas Piovi or Gabriel Neves, Cristian Medina; Tiago Palacios, Edwin Cetré, and Guido Carrillo or Lucas Alario.
