Universidad Católica starts its difficult quarterfinal bracket of the Copa Sudamericana against Vélez Sarsfield by Pablo Galdames, duel that will take place this Tuesday, starting at 9:30 p.m. (00:30 GMT) at the “José Amalfitani” Stadium in Buenos Aires.
The “crusaders”, who have had a great season under the technical direction of Ariel Holan, arrived at this instance after leaving River Plate de Uruguay on the road, after a great 2-1 victory on the road and a 1-0 loss at home, which left some doubts, although it did not cloud the classification.
For this match, the precordillerano cast had the benefit of not playing the weekend, since the student classic that was scheduled for Sunday against U. de Chile was suspended, given that they reached 72 hours between one game and another, after the duel against Vélez was scheduled for this Tuesday.
The UC traveled to Buenos Aires this Monday to play the round of the best eight of this tournament after eight years, and he did it after a morning training session in San Carlos de Apoquindo, in which Holan tried a team without Diego Buonanotte from the start and with José Pedro Fuenzalida taking his place.
With this panorama, the formation of the strip will be: Matías Dituro; Raimundo Reboolledo, Germán Lanaro, Válber Huerta, Alfonso Parot; Ignacio Saavedra, Fuenzalida, Luciano Aued; Gastón Lezcano, Fernando Zampedri and Edson Puch.
For its part, the cast of Liniers comes to this instance after overwhelming Deportivo Cali in the second round, with a global score of 7-1, winning 5-1 in the second game in Colombia, a background that makes it fearsome.
However, the elimination in the group stage of the “Diego Armando Maradona” Cup and a scandal for an alleged sexual abuse at a party where the players Miguel Brizuela, Thiago Almada, Ricardo Centurión and Juan Martin Lucero attended, but where they were not involved, caused the team to divert their attention during the last days.
The Chilean Galdames will not be an alternative, despite recovering from Covid-19, which even led him to be hospitalized, because he only takes training.
Velez’s lineup will be: Alexander Domínguez; Tomás Guidara, Emiliano Amor, Luis Abram, Hernán de la Fuente, Mauro Pittón, Facundo Cáseres, Federico Mancuello, Agustín Bouzat, Cristian Tarragona and Lucas Janson.
This duel will be refereed by the Brazilian Bruno Arieu and you can follow it through transmission of Al Aire Libre in Cooperativa and the Virtual Marker of AlAireLibre.cl.
