Colo Colo visits Coquimbo Unido this Friday at the “Francisco Sánchez Rumoroso” Stadium with the mission to start the era of Gustavo Quinteros on the right foot and to win for the first time in the National Championship after the paralysis by the pandemic.
Quinteros took office last Tuesday at the Monumental, after a long drive from Buenos Aires and several health protocols on his arrival in the country and had three days of training to try a change for the duel against the “aurinegros” and thus try to get away from the relegation zone.
On his arrival at “Cacique”, the DT pointed out that “It is not a sacrifice to come to direct a great of America”, despite its complex present, adding in football that “I will not give the shirt to anyone “, but that “this group has enormous quality and it is necessary to give them the necessary tools to get the best out of it and get ahead”.
The “albos” have not won since a distant March 7 in the local competition, where they are in the penultimate position with nine points, and they only achieved a victory in the Copa Libertadores in the return of the competition against Peñarol on September 15, so the first thing the team must regain is trust.
In addition, they must do a great physical work, since to date they are injured Nicolás Blandi, Pablo Mouche, Javier Parraguez, César Fuentes, Carlos Carmona, Matías Zaldivia, Oscar Opazo, Iván Morales, Williams Alarcón, Iván Morales and Nicolás Maturana, all casualties for this game, added to the national team Brayan Cortés.
The first formation that Quinteros is expected to send onto the field will be: Miguel Pinto; Felipe Campos, Julio Barroso, Juan Manuel Insaurralde, Brayan Véjar; Bryan Soto, Gabriel Suazo, Leonardo Valencia; Marcos Bolados, Esteban Paredes and Gabriel Costa.
For its part, the “pirates” arrive at their best moment of the year, since after the arrival of coach Juan José Ribera they have won three games and they have lost only one, so they have breathed in the bottom of the standings.
Furthermore, it is expected that for this commitment returns his main letter in attack Mauricio Pinilla, who is already training after a sprained ankle, and is available to the “Coto”, although the safest thing is that it adds minutes in the second half.
With this scenario, the most likely formation of Coquimbo will be with: Matías Cano; Juan Carlos Espinoza, Víctor González, Nicolás Berardo, John Salas; Fernando Manríquez, Federico Pereyra, Rubén Farfán, Joe Abrigo, Diego Aravena; and Diego Vallejos
This game will be played from 18:00 hours (21:00 GMT), with arbitration by Nicolás Gamboa, and you can follow him along with the radio broadcast of Al Aire Libre in Cooperativa and the Virtual Marker of AlAireLibre.cl.
