Argentinos Jrs to finish off Copa Libertadores Group F with a win
3556

Argentinos Jrs are atop of Copa Libertadores Group F and are assured of progressing to the round of 16. On Wednesday night, Argentinos Jrs take on Group F’s basement dwellers Nacional.

Nacional may be at the bottom of Group F but could still qualify for the round of 16 in the Copa Libertadores. They have taken five points from 15 available to them in the tournament.

The Uruguayan club are just one point behind Group F’s second-place team, Universidad Catolica.

The reverse fixture between the teams on Copa Libertadores matchday 1 ended 2-0 in favour of Argentinos Jrs. Gabriel Avalos and Emanuel Herrera scored on either side of halftime to send the Argentines to victory.

Argentinos Jrs’ games in the group stage have all been low scoring. All five of their matches in the Copa Libertadores ended with both teams not scoring goals and under 2.5 goals tallied.

They have allowed a mere one goal in five matches in Copa Libertadores play.

Nacional are –3 in goal difference going into the final matchday of Copa Libertadores group play. Three of their five games ended with under 2.5 goals scored.

Three of those fixtures also ended with both teams not scoring.

Manager Diego Dabove has just one player on the injury list at Argentinos Jrs going into the game. Defender Matias Caruzzo is a doubt for the match due to a knee cap injury.

Nacional goalkeeper Sergio Rochet kept clean sheets in the last two Group F games. He is likely to start with Guillermo Centurion ruled out with coronavirus.

Gonzalo Vega, Thiago Vecino, Emiliano Martinez, Maximiliano Cantera, Joaquin Trasante and Mathias Laborda are also ruled out of the match due to COVID-19. Defender Augustin Oliveros is ruled out of the game due to an injury.

Argentinos Jrs have not played a league game this season. The Argentine Liga does not begin until July 2021. They have participated in cup competitions, however.Their last seven matches in the Copa de la Liga Pro finished without a loss.

Nacional started the Uruguayan Apertura last weekend with a victory over Club Atletico Progreso. They could use the 3-1 win to build momentum for the Copa Libertadores game this week versus Argentinos Jrs.

Argentinos Jrs should take advantage of the injuries and COVID-19 cases being endured by Nacional.

The Argentine team should claim a low-scoring win against Nacional just like in the reverse fixture with under 2.5 goals scored.
