18-year-old Marco Campagnaro returned from suspension, but did not make the matchday squad and remains an injury concern here. Franco Escobar remains a long-term injury absentee for the home side. Back-to-back victories will see changes kept to a minimum here to keep the momentum going. A fully fit squad to pick from is another positive for Central Cordoba.
Newell's Old Boys have kept a clean sheet in their last 3 home matches (Liga Profesional). Newell's Old Boys have won their last 3 matches against Central Cordoba de Santiago in all competitions. There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Newell's Old Boys's last 3 home games (Liga Profesional). Newell's Old Boys have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 matches against Central Cordoba de Santiago in all competitions.
An awful performance from Newell's Old Boys away to Arsenal Sarandi saw them lose 3-1 to the bottom of the table side, so that is pretty much rock bottom for a side like that. Nicolas Castro is the figure of quality for Newell's with five goals and five assists this campaign, but that has dried up in recent weeks and they need him to return to form in order for the side as a whole to improve. Back-to-back victories for Central Cordoba following a run of just one win in the last 16 games prior speaks to just how impressive this current run of form is and it looks to be a catalyst for improvement. Four goals scored and just one conceded in those two games has allowed Central Cordoba to flex their rarely-shown attacking muscles against good sides in Sarmiento and Independiente. 1:1
