Unión must win to qualify, away at Vélez chasing top spot | OneFootball

Vélez is looking to regain the top spot in Zone A, while Unión has no margin for error if it wants to break into the top eight.

For El Tatengue, the picture is clear: after an inconsistent run with just one win in its last six matches, winning in Liniers has become a must in order not to depend on other results in the fight for qualification. On the other side, the team managed by Guillermo Barros Schelotto has already secured its place in the knockout stage, but it needs all three points to try to overtake Estudiantes and Boca at the top of the table.

Unión is already in Liniers.

Madelón’s team traveled yesterday and is staying in Buenos Aires ahead of this afternoon’s match.
