Belgrano v Newell’s: final match of the round in Córdoba | OneFootball

After the 3-1 in San Luis where the Pirate eliminated the Lepra, both teams face each other again in search of getting closer to the playoff zone.

Belgrano and Newell’s will meet this Monday from 21:00 at the Julio César Villagra stadium, for the ninth round of the 2025 Clausura Tournament. The match will be officiated by Daniel Edgardo Zamora, with VAR managed by Emanuel Ejarque and will be broadcast on TNT Sports Premium.

The Pirate arrives with the momentum of having eliminated the Lepra in the Argentine Cup, after a historic comeback in the quarter-finals with two goals from Franco Jara and one from Lisandro López. That victory allowed the Cordoban team to reach the top four of the tournament for the second time in its history, and now it will try to transfer that energy to the Clausura, where it has gone four matches without a win and has fallen out of the playoff zone. On the horizon is also the cup semi-final against Argentinos Juniors, with the venue and date to be confirmed.

On the other side, the team led by Cristian Fabbiani is experiencing an irregular present. Newell’s has only won two of its last nine games and, although it managed to win 2-0 over Atlético Tucumán at the Coloso Marcelo Bielsa, it couldn’t maintain the momentum and was eliminated in the Argentine Cup by the Cordobans. With life only in the local tournament, the Lepra will seek revenge in Alberdi and a victory that brings it closer to qualifying for the next round.
