Godoy Cruz vs Chacarita Juniors Match Preview
Omar Asad saw last week the top escape once again from Tomba's hands, though the one point gap from the top might be shut only for a few hours this Friday, with the team receiving Chacarita's Funebreros in Mendoza. Jairo Castillo's return to the squad (The birth of his first son kept him off the fields during the last weeks, but the critical situation the Tomba is going through forced his return) will secure Federico Higuain will not be alone in the offensive, and Chacarita has one of the weakest defenses, with their goal defeated 24 times.
Chacarita's future in the Primera Division is nothing but a dream, but the team wants to be able to have at least sweet memories of their time in Argentina's most competitive league. Three coaches have been commanding the team in the last five weeks, and the inconsistency of the directives have been solidly reflecting on the field. Luis Marabotto will have a lot of work to do to heal Chacarita, and for that task some major surgery has been performed by team's manager; these last three weeks will be for the coach to find between his youngest players those who can bear with the pressure of fighting in such competitive tournaments, as it's expected of Matias Pisano and Federico Chicoarello, two stars in the third category that might get the Fune back on their feet, leapfrogging Boca Juniors and River Plate and escaping from the basement.
