Argentinos Juniors will host Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata in La Paternal this Monday, who must score points if they don’t want to relegate. The match corresponding to date 13 of the Professional League will be played from 21:30 at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium, with the refereeing of Hernán Mastrángelo and broadcast by TNT Sports.
El Bicho, who appears tenth in the standings with 18 units, comes from a 0-0 draw against Huracán, and has only lost once in his last 10 games. Furthermore, in the Copa Libertadores they finished as leaders of Group E, after beating Corinthians and Independiente del Valle.
Lobo, on the other hand, is in 25th place with 11 points and in the last game he lost 2-0 against Belgrano. In the Copa Sudamericana the story does not change, they are last in Group G and their qualification for the next phase is increasingly compromised.
The DT of Gymnastics, Sebastián Romero, will not be able to count on undisputed starters in the team such as Leonardo Morales, Cristian Tarragona and Ignacio Miramón. The first two due to injury and the others due to disqualification.
