Independiente vs River Plate Match Preview
Just one point below Godoy Cruz, the Diablos have become the second alternative for the top, and this match against the Gallinas will give team's coach Tolo Gallego a chance to show their fans this year will be shed in red. Ignacio Piatti and Nestor Silvera are getting along pretty well in the field. A third consecutive win might be enough to make their fans forget about the disaster in Liniers and start dreaming with a new title.
River Plate has become a geriatric for their former stars. During Ariel Ortega's 36th birthday celebration the Millos returned to victory against San Lorenzo. They couldn't have offered the Burrito a better gift, as his alcohol problem is keeping him off the current team's squad. But this victory has taken River to the upper half of the positions table. The unexpected hero of last match was young Facundo Affranchino, who in his fifth official match had to become a man. Upon this match, we're likely to see Affranchino get more and more minutes for the Rojiblanco
