In a conversation with Radio Gol, journalist Juan Manuel Spontón gave a detailed overview of how Racing de Nueva Italia is shaping up for next Sunday’s crucial clash against Colón. After a “bitter pill” in their last outing against Bolívar, the Córdoba side is looking to regroup during a week marked by the physical progress of its top star and a possible more conservative tactical approach.

The question sparking hope: Will Ricky Centurión travel?

One of the main points of the interview was the condition of Ricardo Centurión. Although at the start of the week he seemed ruled out with a minor tear in his right adductor, Spontón revealed that in the last few hours a possibility has opened up: “There’s a chance he will travel and be on the bench.”

Speaking about the former Racing de Avellaneda player’s current situation, the reporter highlighted his low profile: “He keeps a low profile, and his humility and work ethic are surprising; he’s clearly aware that this is an opportunity to relaunch his career.”

The Torres-Motta duo’s plan for the Brigadier López

After Pablo Fornazari’s departure, the coaching duo made up of Ramiro Torres and Pablo Motta is seeking to be confirmed in the role. Against El Sabalero, Racing is expected to be more cautious than in recent matches:

  • Formation change: Spontón said the team “is going to be a little more cautious against Colón,” looking to pack the midfield more in order to gain balance and control of the ball.
  • Backing the goalkeeper: Despite the mistake in the rain in the last match, Brian Olivera will remain the first-choice keeper.
  • An experienced debut: Gaspar Vega is expected to make his debut, a midfielder over 30 who arrived through the injured-player quota and will bring the necessary experience to midfield.

Probable lineup for Sunday

The projected lineup being handled by the Córdoba press for the visit to Colón includes: Brian Olivera; Chamorro (or Rinaudo), Aranda, Matías Sánchez, Manuel Díaz; Rinaudo (or Machado), Olinick, Kummer (or Gaspar Vega), Machado; Leandro Córdoba and Javier Chavarria.

Racing knows it has a tough run of away matches coming up (Colón, Morón, and Godoy Cruz), and the objective behind closed doors is clear: “To finish among the top seven, make the playoff, and qualify for the Copa Argentina.”
