Argentine Juniors welcome this Sunday Santa Fe Union in a duel of teams who want to stay close to the Atlético Tucumán leader, for the thirteenth round of the Professional League. The match will be played at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in La Paternal, starting at 6 pm, with arbitration by Patricio Loustau. It can be seen on TNT Sports.
Argentinos (20 points) had a great start to the championship, but their positive moment was interrupted by the sales of Matías Galarza (Genk from Belgium) and Fausto Vera (Corinthians), as they accumulated a draw and two consecutive defeats there and their playing volume has dropped significantly.
Furthermore, in the last hours, the departure of Gabriel Carabajal, natural heir of Vera in the position inside the field, to Santos from Brazil has been made official, so Gabriel Milito has to prepare a new eleven in his head and translate it on the field.
In return, Unión (21) is on the verge of qualifying for the Copa Sudamericana 2023 and has one game less in the current tournament – against the Talleres de Córdoba -. Moreover, he hasn’t lost since the fourth round against River (5-1).
