Argentinian legend Carlos Tevez will begin his managerial journey as he steps into the dugout for the first time in charge of Rosario Central. Tevez will be working from a low base after a disappointing 2-0 away defeat to Velez Sarsfield saw no marked improvement under the caretaker charge of German Rivarola. Gimnasia La Plata continue to impress and a convincing 3-1 victory over a top Racing Club side will do little harm for their momentum. As ever, Brahian Aleman is the key man for Gimnasia with two goals and an assist in the opening three games providing a difference for his side. 0:1
Gimnasia LP have drawn their last 3 away matches (Liga Profesional). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 7 of Gimnasia LP's last 8 away games (Liga Profesional). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Rosario Central's last 4 games (Liga Profesional). Rosario Central have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 4 matches against Gimnasia LP in all competitions.
Given the change in management, there could be a marked difference in selection here. It will be unlikely that Rosario will setup in a 4-4-2 like their last outing. Gimnasia will likely keep with an unchanged side from the victory over Racing Club. Lautaro Chavez could be the only potential change, should Tomas Muro come in.
