Boston River vs Jaguares de Córdoba | Preview
The Uruguayan Boston River will try to take advantage of their home condition to turn around the series against the Colombian Jaguares, after losing the first leg 2-1, and advance to the next phase of the Copa Sudamericana.
A result of 1-0 will be enough for the home team to advance to the next round, so for this match their coach, Alejandro Apud, awaits the recovery of Diego Scotti and Robert Flores.
The Brazilian Bruno Lucas will not play as he got injured in the last match of the Uruguayan Torneo Apertura.
"Jaguares is a good team, fast and strong. The series is open. The key is not to concede goals. We have to attack them, but not neglect the defense because if we score a goal, there is the latent possibility of qualifying," highlighted the Uruguayan coach to the press.
Similarly, Boston River is preparing for their debut in the local Torneo Intermedio against Peñarol.
Meanwhile, the Colombian team arrived in Montevideo with the motivation of their victory at home although with the bitter taste of the defeat against Junior de Barranquilla in the local league, which left them without aspirations for the title.
For this clash, the probable lineup for Jaguares includes the goalkeeper Nelson Ramos in place of Wilder Mosquera, in the midfield Alexander González for Juan Camilo Roa, and in the attack Pablo Rojas will be replaced by Kevin Londoño.
The coach of the Colombian team, José Manuel Rodríguez, will rely on maintaining the core of the team with players like Ramos, the center-back Ramón Córdoba, the midfielder Alexis Hinestroza, and the forward Léiner Escalante.
