San Lorenzo and Huracán face off in Sunday's clásico: time, TV, line-ups | OneFootball

The Liga Profesional Clausura serves up the biggest match of the weekend this Sunday afternoon. At the Nuevo Gasómetro, San Lorenzo de Almagro host Huracán de Parque Patricios from 3 p.m. in a new edition of a derby that is always fiery and thrilling.

An evenly matched contest is expected, considering the inconsistency both teams are currently dealing with. Neither side has managed to string together a couple of wins in recent weeks, and on the field both have alternated between good and bad performances. That is why winning the derby and building momentum for the challenges ahead has become the main objective.

San Lorenzo are coming off a narrow defeat away to Central Córdoba of Santiago del Estero, which followed the loss suffered on Matchday 1 against Lanús on the road. The flip side came at home, where they beat Gimnasia y Esgrima 1-0 in a tight match without much room to spare.

As for the lineup, coach Néstor Gorosito will go with the young Nicolás Blanco at right-back in place of Nahuel Arias. In defense, Danilo Arboleda will also come in for Rattalino, thus forming a five-man back line. In midfield, Martín Río and Facundo Gulli will replace Álvarez and Reali.

Huracán, meanwhile, beat Banfield 1-0 in their opener, then lost 2-1 in Mendoza to Independiente Rivadavia, and drew 0-0 away to Atlético Tucumán. Tactically, Diego Martínez will keep the same setup and only tweak the midfield, with Ojeda going out and Rodrigo Fernández Cedrés coming in.

San Lorenzo will try to snap their bad run against Huracán, whom they have failed to beat in their last five meetings. In those matches, El Globo won twice and the other three ended in draws.
