Rosario Central Preview
Rosario Central has accumulated four points from its two first games, the result of a 1-0 win over Argentinos Juniors in its official debut and a 2-2 draw against Tigre playing away.
The last match confirmed the improved performance of Juan Cruz Komar, a central defender who had been relegated due to poor performances at the end of last year, but who has already earned a place in the starting lineup.
The latest good news for the team coached by Miguel Ángel Russo is that the club has signed Colombian midfielder Jaminton Campaz from Gremio of Brazil. In any case, as it usually happens in these last minute signings, his appearance in the starting 11 will take a few weeks, until he is up to speed.
Probable lineup (3-4-1-2): Gaspar Servio, Carlos Quintana, Facundo Mallo, Juan Cruz Komar; Damián Martinez, Kevin Ortíz, Francis MacAllister, Alan Rodríguez; Ignacio Malcorra, Jhonatan Candia, Fabricio Oviedo.
Arsenal Preview
The Sarandí team lost 1-0 to San Lorenzo in their first match, and in the second matchday of the 2023 Professional League they drew 1-1 against Estudiantes de La Plata, at home.
Santiago Toloza scored the equalizer to turn things around for an Arsenal team that urges points to escape from the relegation zone. In that match, left much to be desired, with only two effective shots on goal and a ball possession of 45%.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Alejandro Medina, Lucas Souto, Ignacio Cariglio, Maximiliano Centurión, Adrián Sople, Tiago Banega, Felipe Peña, Lucas Brochero, Santiago Toloza, Lautaro Guzmán, Luis Leal.
JefeBet Prediction
Rosario Central and Arsenal have met 26 times, of which the Sarandí team won 11 and the Canalla 10.
However, this time Arsenal does not have much to face the team from Rosario. Although Russo’s team has many young players and has not yet found the collective performance they were looking for, at JefeBet we believe they will take the three points.
Prediction: Rosario Central wins 2-0.
