Unión host Sarmiento de Junín at the Estadio 15 de Abril on Friday at 19:00 in matchday seven of Zone A in the Torneo Clausura, with Leonardo Madelón sticking largely with his winning side.

According to Radiogol.com, the only enforced change is Brahian Cuello for Julián Palacios, who serves a one-match ban after his red card last time out. Pablo Echavarría will referee.

Unión are set to start with Matías Mansilla, Juan De Dios Pintado, Maizon Rodríguez, Juan Pablo Ludueña, Lucas Ayala, Mauro Luna Diale, Lucas Menossi, Emilio Giaccione, Brahian Cuello, Cristian Tarragona and Marcelo Estigarribia.

Ignacio Malcorra returns to the squad after overcoming a muscle tear and training with the group. The staff will introduce him gradually, so he will wait for his chance from the bench to preserve the structure that worked in Mar del Plata.

The Tatengue seek to confirm their upturn, back up the 3-1 win at Aldosivi in Mar del Plata and build consistency in a campaign that began unevenly.

Off the pitch, the club is navigating turbulent days after a recent institutional alert over the rejection of nearly 20 cheques given to players. Meanwhile, defender Matías Rocha has voiced the group’s hope of qualifying for an international cup.
