Estudiantes vs River Plate Match Preview
Angel Cappa's return to Argentina's professional football has undoubtedly been a successful one, for River managed to return to a victory after many weeks and against one of the leaders of the tournament. This brutal awakening has given Ariel Ortega the confidence needed to recover a place in the squad, for the first matches were promising for the Millonarios thanks to his performance. The coach knows the difficulty of facing America's champion "I'm worried about everything" he said, while recognizing Diego Buonanotte and Ortega's play quality "Between the highest in Europe". Considering the team is still in Direct Relegation for the Apertura every possible points means the world.
Given a time to rest after an excellent American performance, Alejandro Sabella's team will receive home a rival slowly awakening, and the single idea of feeding on River's humble hopes is mouth-watering the Pinchas, anxious to secure the top which belongs to them over Independiente only thanks to goal difference. Mauro Boselli might be playing its last matches with Estudiantes, and leaving the team being league's top striker will be a must for him. Rodrigo Braña and Enzo Perez will provide the Pinchas with an edge on the midfield that might be translated to a solid advantage if everything works as planned. Looking forward to their fourth consecutive victory an aggressive Lion will be waiting for the Rich Guys to pay them a visit.
