Colón name XI for vital survival clash vs Estudiantes (RC) | OneFootball

Ezequiel Medrán will decide this Friday, at the stadium, the starting lineup for Colón to face Estudiantes de Río Cuarto in a crucial match.

Colón is going through decisive hours in the final stretch of the Primera Nacional, and this Friday morning, at the Brigadier López stadium, coach Ezequiel Medrán will conduct the football practice where the starting lineup will be defined to face Estudiantes de Río Cuarto next Monday at 19:00, for the 30th matchday of Zone B.

The Sabalero urgently needs to score in these last rounds to secure their place in the category, and the coach plans to make several changes compared to the team that recently lost to Defensores de Belgrano in Bajo Núñez.

Expected Returns

Medrán will have the return of Emmanuel Gigliotti, who has served his suspension for accumulating yellow cards, and Nicolás Thaller, who has recovered from a tear. Both are expected to return to the starting eleven.

However, Lautaro Gaitán, Tomás Gallay, and Christian Bernardi will remain absent due to various injuries, significant losses that continue to limit the coaching staff's options.

Changes Across All Lines

This Friday's practice will be crucial to confirm the names, but the coach has already hinted that there could be changes in all areas of the field:

A Final at the Brigadier

The match against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto appears as a true final for Colón, which needs to be strong at home to dispel any relegation fears, although they will be keeping an eye on the matches of CADU and Talleres (RE) this Friday.

With changes, significant returns, and the chance to show their best version again, Medrán knows that the margin for error is minimal in this decisive phase, although he has a good points margin compared to his rivals for permanence.
