Madelón starts settling on Palacios’s replacement after red card | OneFootball

Unión has already put the win over Aldosivi behind them and shifted focus to the next challenge. El Tatengue will host Sarmiento this Friday from 7 p.m. at the 15 de Abril, and Leonardo Madelón is currently working on the lineup that will look to build on the good result earned in Mar del Plata.

The main news is the replacement for Julián Palacios. The midfielder was sent off in the last match and will have to serve a one-game suspension, making him an automatic absence against the team from Junín. Brahian Cuello has gained ground in recent hours and now appears to be the leading candidate to come into the starting lineup.

Cuello is an option Madelón has already been considering and, because of his characteristics, he can fill the role Palacios will leave vacant. Although Eric Ramírez is also among the options the coach is weighing, the attacking midfielder has moved ahead and is shaping up to claim a spot in the starting eleven.

The final decision will come during the training sessions leading up to the match, although the picture is becoming clearer and Cuello has the edge. Unión will look to take advantage of the momentum from the win over Aldosivi and return to winning ways at home.

In this way, the probable team to face Sarmiento would be: Mansilla; Pintado, Rodríguez, Ludueña, Ayala; Cuello, Menossi, Giaccone, Luna Diale; Estigarribia, Tarragona.
