The 2 changes Úbeda tested in Boca's line-up to face Tigre | OneFootball

Boca trained this afternoon at the Alberto J. Armando stadium. There, the team’s coach held a formal football practice in which he tested the lineup to face Tigre. Claudio Úbeda tried out two changes compared to those who started the Superclásico.

The practice, which took place at La Bombonera, had several new developments. The first was the inclusion of Nicolás Figal in the starting eleven, replacing Lautaro Di Lollo. This will be a guaranteed change because the center-back from San Justo received his fifth yellow card against River and will not be able to play against the Matador.

Figal would replace Di Lollo.

The other change Claudio Úbeda tested, Boca’s head coach, is Ander Herrera for Milton Giménez. The center forward is on the verge of suspension due to accumulated yellow cards and will be rested for this match against Tigre, since all bookings are cleared for the round of 16.

Consequently, the team lined up with Agustín Marchesín in goal. The back four consisted of Juan Barinaga and Lautaro Blanco on the flanks, with Nicolás Figal and Ayrton Costa as the center-back pairing. In midfield were Carlos Palacios, Leandro Paredes, Milton Delgado, and Ander Herrera. The attack was formed by Miguel Merentiel and Changuito Zeballos.

Barring any unforeseen issues, this would be the team that Xeneize will field to face Tigre this Sunday at La Bombonera, where they will try to finish the first phase of the championship as the sole leader of Zone A.

Everything set for Boca vs Tigre

The match, corresponding to date 16 of the Torneo Clausura—the last of the regular phase—will be played this Sunday from 8:15 p.m. at La Bombonera. The game will be refereed by Darío Herrera, with Fernando Espinoza in charge of VAR.

On another note, this match, like all those in the Argentine domestic tournament, will be broadcast via the Pack Fútbol. On this occasion, the broadcast will be on ESPN Premium.
