River Platewith the stimulus of victory in the classic against San Lorenzo and the need to add a series of victories that allow him to fight for the title, he will be local against Cordoba workshopsin a match for the 21st date of the Professional Football League (LPF) led by Boca Juniors.

The match will be played at 6 pm at the Más Monumental stadium, in the Núñez neighborhood of Buenos Aires, will be refereed by Facundo Tello and broadcast on television by TNT Sports.

Both the “Millionaires” and the “T” will take on the game just four days before their respective engagements for the quarter-finals of the Argentine Cup.

In this context, on Wednesday next week, River will play against Patronato, in La Rioja, and Talleres, will face Independiente, in Chaco, with the possibility of being semi-finalist in the tournament.

The task for River will not be easy as he achieves this decimated commitment, with players in his national teams such as Franco Armani (Argentina), Nicolás De la Cruz (Uruguay) and Paulo Díaz (Chile), injured like Santiago Simón, Robert Rojas and Rodrigo Aliendro and the suspended Enzo Pérez and Marcelo Herrera.

River managed to overcome the tough defeats they suffered in superclásico against Boca Juniors (1-0) and then against Banfield (2-1), when last weekend they beat San Lorenzo (1-0) in one match difficult like all classics, which helped him get back into the fight for the title in the national tournament.

Talleres staked all his efforts on Copa Libertadores with Portuguese manager Pedro Caixinha, but when he was knocked out in the quarter-finals by Vélez Sarsfield, the team felt the impact and started losing frequently in the local tournament, which has triggered the departure of the Lusitanian coach for the bad campaign.

In history, the two have played 58 games with a River Plate advantage of 30 wins against 15 for the Cordobans and 13 draws.
