After losing 0-1 against Patronato de Parana in their previous Superliga match, Lanus will be hoping for a better outcome this time around. The home team have scored only three goals in their last three games, while eight have been conceded. They have managed to keep only two clean sheets in the last six games. With the support of their home crowd, Lanus, who are struggling in the bottom three of the league, will be looking for a surprise win.
Racing Club have been going through a purple patch, scoring 15 goals in their last seven games. Given that they have only kept two clean sheets in their last five games, the defensive unit needs to improve if they are to win the championship significantly. In addition to dominating the midfield and scoring goals, the 4-2-3-1 formation has been very effective. In this game week, they will be on the road to Lanus, hoping to pick up three points.
Lanus will be without the services of Aguirre, Braghieri and Da la Vega, while Racing Club have their share of injuries, with Martinez and Romero not available for selection.
Lanus: Motenni; Placido, Perez, Cabral, Pasquini; Belmonte, Perez, Boggio; Troyansky, Blando, Acosta
Racing Club: Arias; Mena, Piovi, Sigali, Pillud; Vecchio, Moreno, Miranda; Carbonero, Copetti, Hauche
