Unión turn focus to San Lorenzo with changes to the line-up | OneFootball

Unión, with its focus on San Lorenzo, its next opponent this Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at the Nuevo Gasómetro, as part of the fifth round of the Clausura Tournament. The match will be officiated by Leandro Rey Hilfer.

The big news for the team managed by Leonardo Madelón is the excellent recovery of Lucas Menossi. The midfielder, who had been dealing with pain from a heavy blow suffered against Central Córdoba and was also unable to finish the match against Lanús, trained separately over the last few days. However, his improvement was remarkable and he will start against the Azulgrana.

Likewise, the head coach plans to make two changes to the lineup. Lucas Ayala will come in for Bruno Pittón after overcoming the muscle fatigue that kept him out of the previous match. The second change will be the inclusion of Marcelo Estigarribia in place of Misael Aguirre.

The goal: getting back to winning ways

With four points collected in the competition, Tatengue is in urgent need of a victory to climb the standings and move closer to the CopaSudamericana qualification spots, one of the priorities set by Madelón for this part of the year.

The recent victory over Lanús in SantaFe helped lift the squad’s spirits, so the new challenge is to back up that strong performance away from home. With this objective in mind, the coach chose to keep the backbone of the starting eleven with only a few specific tweaks.

Unless a last-minute issue arises, Unión’s lineup in BajoFlores will be Matías Mansilla; Lautaro Vargas, Maizon Rodríguez, Juan Pablo Ludueña and Lucas Ayala; Julián Palacios, Joaquín Mosqueira, Lucas Menossi and Ignacio Malcorra; Marcelo Estigarribia and Cristian Tarragona.

The Santa Fe side will try to take three crucial points against El Ciclón, which would represent a definitive springboard toward the club’s goals for the season.
