Team News

River Plate
Central Cordoba de Santiago
  • Claudio Echeverri return on loan from Manchester City makes him the hot prospect of the division.
  • Juan Meli and Santiago Laquidain will compete for the full back spot, but Laquidain tends to get the nod when Cordoba play a back five.

Prediction

  • River Plate's narrow knockout defeat to rivals Boca Juniors in their Copa de la Liga campaign would have been a blow given they topped Group A.
  • In spite of that setback, River's Copa Libertadores season wasn't harmed as they top their group heading into the latter stages of the group stage.
  • Central Cordoba are perennial strugglers in Argentina and they remain at risk of relegation in the average table.
  • Despite their lack of consistent success, Central Cordoba finished the Copa de la Liga season in steady fashion ahead of this Primera Division effort.
