Velez Sarsfield
Newell's Old Boys
  • Matias Pellegrini may start with a look to a different attacking option after a disappointing opening day.
  • After midweek Copa Argentina action, Newell's may rotate following that game.

Prediction

  • Velez Sarsfield were disappointing on the opening day against Gimnasia La Plata with aspirations of competing at the top end of the table.
  • Braian Romero's six goals in Copa de la Liga were a reliable factor for Velez and they will prove pivotal once again here.
  • Newell's Old Boys were impressive on the opening day against Platense and they will want to improve upon the seventh place finish in Group B of Copa de la Liga.
  • With no continental football to contend with, Newell's will have full focus on domestic football for the second half of the year.
