Colón face a selection dilemma for crunch clash against Talleres (RE) | OneFootball

The Colón squad is going through intense days with their minds set on Sunday’s match, starting at 3 p.m., with Gonzalo Pereira as referee, against Talleres de Remedios de Escalada, for the 31st round of Group B in the Primera Nacional.

This will be a decisive match for the future of the Sabalero, who are just one point away from securing their place in the division. While the team fine-tunes details in each training session, Ezequiel Medrán is adding options in the midfield.

Lautaro Gaitán has been medically cleared after recovering from a muscle tear and has rejoined training normally, so he could reappear among those called up. The same goes for Cristian García, who is available despite some rumors that circulated in recent days. In reality, his absence was due to a coaching decision, as the coach does not see him at his best right now.

As for the defense, Facundo Castet’s situation is being closely monitored, as he is dealing with a hamstring strain, although the coaching staff is moderately optimistic and confident that he will be fit for the weekend’s match.

For now, the coach has not decided on the starting eleven, and it is expected that only between Thursday and Friday will he begin to outline the initial lineup. The group will train in Santa Fe until Saturday morning, then head to Buenos Aires to go into camp. The margin is slim and the goal is within reach: a draw is enough for Colón to guarantee their continuity in the division. Even so, behind closed doors, no one is getting complacent. They know there is still one more step to take.
