Superclásico: a preview with the spotlight on the defenders

While in River the coach Martín Demichelis awaits the recovery of the central marker Paulo Díaz, in Boca the coach Jorge Almirón plans to go out to the Monumental with five defenders. Tomorrow’s game, which will mark the debut of the coaches in a Superclásico.

The millionaire. Paulo Díaz worked yesterday with the ball with the rest of the team at the Ezeiza property and has a chance of arriving in condition to play tomorrow’s Superclásico.

The Chilean Díaz, who suffered a muscle strain on April 23, is the only doubt that Martín Demichelis has for the starting 11 that he presented in the match against Boca and the assembly of the defense depends on his presence.

Although the evolution was very good in these weeks of kinesic work, the final decision will be made by Demichelis with the player this afternoon in the training session prior to the concentration.

If Paulo Díaz returns to the team, the starting lineup also returned to the team of left back Enzo Díaz, who was suspended.

The formation would be with Armani, Casco, González Pírez, Paulo Díaz and Enzo Díaz; Enzo Pérez, De la Cruz, Ignacio Fernández and Aliendro; Barco and Beltran.

The Xeneize. The players who played in Santiago de Chile yesterday did regenerative exercises. The coaching staff recently carried out a soccer practice today to give an idea of ​​the eleven that will play against River.

Almirón could give the team directly the same Sunday, hours before the game, in the corridors of the Más Monumental.

According to reports, the coach – who has just achieved three consecutive victories and who is going through his best moment since he took office – has the idea of ​​putting together a line of five defenders as he proposed in the final part against the trans-Andean champion.

In this tactical drawing, we think about the projections of Luis Advíncula and Valentín Barco, when the team goes on the offensive, and there are only three left in the back line.

A possible alignment would be with Sergio Romero; Advíncula, Roncaglia, Figal, Valentini and Barco; “Pol” Fernández, Varela and Equi Fernández or Medina; Vazquez and Villa.

The operative. Tomorrow’s Superclásico will have the presence of 1,400 members of the City Police, who will form three control rings for the fans starting at 1:30 p.m.

The gates of the stadium will open at 1:30 p.m., four hours before the start of the match, so fans are recommended to attend in advance so that they can go through three security rings.
