On the 7th of May, Rosario Central hosts Estudiantes at Estadio Dr. Lisandro De La Torre in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Superliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 20 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. In their last match, Rosario Central recorded a 1-2 loss against Huracán. Veliz scored the first goal for Rosario Central in the 22nd minute, but Matías Cóccaro Ferreira got the equalizer for Huracán in the 49th minute Finally they completed the comback victory in the 82nd minute on a penalty goal by Franco Cristaldo to cap off a wild match. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches, while 1st placed Estudiantes is fresh off their 2-1 win against Aldosivi. Manuel Castro scored the first goal for Estudiantes in the 12th minute, then Marcelo Meli tied it up for Aldosivi in the 51st minute. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Estudiantes should be reasonably happy with their performance.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Estudiantes won the head to head battle with 1 win.
Estudiantes is fortunate enough to have Mauro Boselli in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored 5 goals. Ferreyra and Pedro Emmanuel Ojeda are the top scorers for Rosario Central in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
