PREVIA
On Saturday (3:45 p.m. Peruvian time), River Plate and Gimnasia de La Plata will face each other for the penultimate round of the 2016 Argentinian Tournament. The 'Millonarios' need to win to forget about the defeat they suffered in the previous round against San Lorenzo.
Rodrigo Mora, Uruguayan forward of River Plate, will miss the match due to training separately due to pain in his left ankle and pubalgia.
Therefore, it is possible that the forwards of River Plate against Gimnasia de La Plata will be Iván Alonso and Lucas Alario. In addition, Gabriel Mercado will return to the right back position, while Gonzalo Martínez will replace the injured D'Alessandro.
