Talleres Cordoba will be playing hosts to Huracan for their 21st game in the Superliga Argentina. Both clubs are currently going through an underwhelming season and would be keen on registering a series of wins in order to climb higher up the table. Talleres Cordoba is 13th in the league with 28 points and is recently on the back of 1-0 win over San Lorenzo. Huracan on the other end has lost four of its last five games and is dangling at the 23rd spot with just 16 points under their belts.

Talleres Cordoba
Guido Herrera was sent off in the win over San Lorenzo and should make way for Mauricio Caranta to start in at goal. Jonathan Mendez was also shown a red, which provides an opportunity for Guilherme Parede to support Nahuel Bustos on the attack. Enzo Diaz could miss out upcoming fixture due to an injury and we could see Leonardo Godoy to return at the right-back position.
Huracan
Nicolas Cordero should continue to start up front for the away side. Mauro Bogado is likely to feature in central midfield alongside Martin Ojeda. Lucas Merolla should be back in the starting lineup. Adrian Calello misses out due to suspension, while Juan Garro’s availability remains in doubt.
