The end of the Torneo Clausura finds Unión immersed in uncertainty. Just days before the match against Belgrano, scheduled for this Monday at 17:00 at the Gigante de Alberdi and refereed by Nazareno Arasa, head coach Leonardo Madelón has yet to define the starting lineup.

​After an intense and secretive preparation, training sessions have shown that the coach is still closely observing and meticulously evaluating each position. The lineup is expected to start taking its final shape this Saturday at the Estadio 15 de Abril.

?The two main uncertainties:

  • ​Vargas’ replacement: The suspension of Lautaro Vargas has opened up a contest on the wing. The options are: ​Nicolás Paz: A more defensive profile. ​Emiliano Álvarez: Offers greater range and an offensive mindset. Madelón’s choice here will be crucial and will reflect the tactical strategy for the match in Córdoba.
  • ​Doubts in attack: The physical and personal situation of Cristian Tarragona raises questions about his place in the starting eleven. ​Marcelo Estigarribia has emerged as a serious alternative for the attack, not only because of his good form but also to ensure freshness and energy in the opponent’s area.

​Unión will train until Sunday morning before heading to Córdoba, aiming to find a “reliable” version for the end of the tournament in a venue that is always challenging, like Belgrano’s home ground.
