Two days before the match that Unión will play against Sarmiento, coach Leonardo Madelón is considering repeating the lineup that played against San Lorenzo and Aldosivi.
Although in a press conference, Unión's coach Leonardo Madelón mentioned a possible rotation due to the three matches that Tate will play in seven days, this idea might be set aside.
As a result, at this time, the coaching staff is considering the concrete possibility of maintaining the same lineup that recently defeated Aldosivi 1-0.
And also, it is the same lineup that drew 0-0 against San Lorenzo. Thus, Madelón could repeat the team for the third consecutive match.
Although Valentín Fascendini has recovered from the injury that sidelined him for the last two matches, the coach has decided to confirm Juan Pablo Ludueña.
On the other hand, despite not performing well, Madelón is satisfied with what Franco Fragapane contributes and would keep him as a starter; otherwise, Misael Aguirre or Cuello could take his place.
Thus, the red-and-white lineup would be: Matías Mansilla, Lautaro Vargas, Maizon Rodríguez, Juan Pablo Ludueña, Mateo Del Blanco; Julián Palacios, Mauro Pittón, Rafael Profini, Franco Fragapane, Cristian Tarragona, and Marcelo Estigarribia.
What is clear is that after the match against Sarmiento, there will likely be some changes for the visit to Instituto on Sunday due to the series of matches the team has been playing.
