Velez Sarsfield - River Plate

Velez, after two consecutive defeats by Tsakatita 2-0, and Patronato 0-2 at home, drew 2-2 last game in Cordoba against Belgrano. He got a valuable point in a difficult home by scoring the equalizer in the delays. It is quite low in the league standings and should collect points immediately so as not to risk it. Heinze will line up his team without absences, with forwards Buzat, Salinas and Mauro Zarate. On the other hand, River Plate has lost a lot of ground from the first places of the ranking. Its many negative results have brought it to 19th place with 19 points, to - 9 from the top four which as it is logical is now the goal (exit to the upcoming Copa Libertadores). After the break he has given four matches, with a 2-0 victory over Olympus, two away defeats by Hurricane 1-0 and Lanus with the same score. While last match came a 2-2 draw in the Monumental with Godoy Cruz in a game they lost 0-2. River will play Flamengo in Brazil on Wednesday in the first match of the Copa Libertadores, with Marcelo Gagiardo having the same mind in that match. However, he will not be indifferent to today since he is quite behind in terms of points. Velez "burns" for points while hosting River who does not make convincing appearances away from home. Libertadores follows but he will not be indifferent using a starting lineup. Bet on many goals.
