Barracas Central Preview
Without renowned players, but with a great collective commitment, Barracas Central faces its second season in the Argentine first division. The humble club from the south of Buenos Aires is awaiting confirmation of the signing of Ricardo Centurión, a talented striker who has won championships with Racing and Boca in the past.
Alan Cantero and Iván Tapia, two of Barracas’ star players, are recovering from physical problems and are in doubt for the debut of the team coached by former football player and soccer commentator, Rodolfo Depaoli.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Cristian Arce; Facundo Mater, Nicolás Capraro, Fernando Prado, Nicolás Tolosa; Mauro Penipil, Rodrigo Herrera, Marcos Benítez, Brian Calderara; Alexis Domínguez and Manuel Brondo.
Godoy Cruz Preview
Godoy Cruz had a very bad 2022, as it was one of the worst seasons since the team has been in the first division. Indeed, such a season was odd considering that this club has always been a source of good players and a showy soccer play that had given them good results. Now, the team has once again opted for Diego Flores as its coach, a man who has worked with Marcelo Bielsa in the past and who has already been at Tomba.
There will be some new faces in defense: Rasmussen (ex Sarmiento de Junín player) and the Chilean player Galdames. Meanwhile, Conechny, who has played for Argentina’s U-20 national team, will play up front.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Diego Rodríguez; Pier Barrios, Gianluca Ferrari, Federico Rasmussen, Thomás Galdames; Gonzalo Abrego, Juan Andrada, Nahuel Ulariaga; Matías Ramírez, Tadeo Allende, Tomás Conechny.
JefeBet Prediction
Godoy Cruz experienced excellent soccer moments in 2021 under the guidance of coach Diego Flores. His return makes us think that he will guide the team in the same way and against a Barracas team without names that could offer much resistance. We believe the Mendocinos will win this match.
Prediction: Godoy Cruz wins 3 to 1.
