Newell's Old Boys vs Chacarita Juniors Match Preview
Last week Newell's returned to victory after five weeks, standing at the 12th position with 17 points. Roberto Sensini has been unable to maintain last year's effectiveness to score, for the Leprosos have scored only 14 goals in this season. Without Lionel Vangioni, Juan Manuel Insaurralde and Marcelo Estigarribia (all suspended for another week) the responsibility to lead the offensive will fall once again over Joaquin Boghossian's back, for it seems without the Uruguayan striker Newell's offensive ideas are unable to pose a threat to their rivals. Their chances of claiming a place in the Copa Sudamericana will be called upon this Saturday match. Santa Fe's derby will be held next week, and they need a victory to become the favorite for such big game.The joy of defeating Boca Juniors by 4-1 is now a thing of the past, and thanks to two consecutive defeats the Funebreros are once again deeply involved in the relegation fight, and only a streak of continuous victories could save their future at the Primera Division. Lisando Lopez has been unable to become the offensive engine its team is needing, Team's captain Cristian Grabinski will have a tough time against Newell's strikers, and considering Mauro Navas' players hold the second goal most defeated in the league some defensive variations will have to take place to secure they do not return home pointless. Watch out for Facundo Parra, team's top striker and bearer of what the Funebreros are fighting for.
