Home team | Away team | Date | Competition | Result |
---|---|---|---|---|
Estudiantes | Aldosivi | 2025-06-01 | Cup | 1-1 (Win on pen 2-4) |
San Martin San Juan | Aldosivi | 2025-05-04 | Apertura | 0-3 (Win) |
Aldosivi | Banfield | 2025-04-26 | Apertura | 2-1 (Win) |
Independiente Rivadavia | Aldosivi | 2025-04-23 | Apertura | 1-0 (Loss) |
Aldosivi | Racing Club | 2025-04-14 | Apertura | 0-2 (Loss) |
Recent Form: LLWWW
Aldosivi managed to end their season with an impressive penalty shootout win over Estudiantes, showcasing their nerve in high-pressure situations. With an average of 2 goals scored in their last 5 games, they have maintained a decent attacking output. Additionally, Aldosivi has secured 1 clean sheet in those matches, indicating a reasonably solid defensive unit. Despite a couple of setbacks against Racing Club and Independiente Rivadavia, Aldosivi remains a formidable force when playing at home, and under Mariano Charlier’s tactical acumen, they’ll be eager to start the new season strong.
Aldosivi’s squad, under the guidance of Mariano Charlier, has a mix of experience and youth, aiming to make a strong start to their Liga Profesional campaign. Notably:
Expected lineup for Aldosivi:
These key players will be crucial in positioning Aldosivi for a strong start to the season, with their individual and collective performances likely to determine the match outcome.
Aldosivi currently have significant injuries that could impact their performance in the upcoming match.
Player | Injury | Expected return |
---|---|---|
Marcelo Esponda | Broken ankle | Mid-July 2025 |
Nestor Breitenbruch | Cruciate ligament injury | Out for season |
Both Marcelo Esponda and Nestor Breitenbruch are key players in Aldosivi’s squad. Esponda’s defensive prowess and Breitenbruch’s experience will be missed, forcing Coach Mariano Charlier to reshuffle his defensive lineup.
There are no suspensions reported for Aldosivi.
These absences might affect the team’s stability at the back, putting additional pressure on the remaining defenders and goalkeeper Jorge Carranza to step up their game. The reshuffled backline will need to quickly find cohesion to keep Central Cordoba’s forwards at bay.
Aldosivi Tactical Breakdown:
Coach Mariano Charlier is likely to stick to a 4-3-3 formation, which has proven effective for Aldosivi’s dynamic style of play. This setup gives them width in attack, allowing Elias Torres, Agustin Palavecino, and Natanael Guzmán to exploit the flanks and create goal-scoring opportunities.
The midfield trio of Serrago, Bochi, and Giani will focus on controlling the tempo and providing defensive cover. They will need to be vigilant, especially with the recent defensive reshuffles due to injuries.
Their defensive structure aims to remain compact. While they have managed just one clean sheet in the last five games, the backline, anchored by goalkeeper Jorge Carranza, will focus on maintaining discipline. This solidity at the back will be essential in neutralizing Central Cordoba’s attacking threats, especially during the critical 61-75-minute interval, where they often concede goals.
Central Cordoba’s recent form has been patchy, highlighted by a mix of results. Their recent performances in both domestic and international competitions demonstrate inconsistency, which they will aim to correct in this opening match of the Liga Profesional season.
Home team | Away team | Date | Competition | Result |
---|---|---|---|---|
LDU de Quito | Central Cordoba | 2025-05-29 | Copa Libertadores Grp. C | 0-3 (Loss) |
Deportivo Tachira | Central Cordoba | 2025-05-13 | Copa Libertadores Grp. C | 2-1 (Win) |
Central Cordoba | Flamengo | 2025-05-08 | Copa Libertadores Grp. C | 1-1 (Draw) |
Banfield | Central Cordoba | 2025-05-02 | Liga Profesional Apertura | 1-3 (Loss) |
Central Cordoba | Independiente Rivadavia | 2025-04-29 | Liga Profesional Apertura | 1-2 (Loss) |
This uneven run of form has seen them secure just one win, a draw, and endure three defeats in their last five matches. They have managed to average 1.00 goals per game but have struggled defensively, lacking a single clean sheet in these fixtures. Defensively, they have shown vulnerabilities, especially between the 61st and 75th minutes, where they frequently concede. On the offensive side, they have potential but need more cohesion and finishing finesse. With their current position eighth on the table and a challenging start to their season, coach Omar De Felippe will need to bolster their defensive discipline and improve their attacking efficiency to change their fortunes.
Central Cordoba de Santiago will be relying on key players to step up in this opening fixture. With their recent inconsistency, individual brilliance could make the difference.
Expected lineup for Central Cordoba de Santiago:
Individual battles to watch include Heredia against Aldosivi’s centre-backs, and Aguerre’s response to Aldosivi’s forwards.
Central Cordoba de Santiago come into this match with a relatively clear bill of health, though they do have one notable injury concern which could impact their lineup and performance.
Player | Injury | Expected Return |
---|---|---|
Lucas Varaldo | Knee Injury | Early August 2025 |
Lucas Varaldo’s absence due to a knee injury is a significant setback. Although he is expected to return in early August, his presence on the field will be missed in this opening fixture. The team’s depth will be tested, and others will need to step up to fill the void left by Varaldo’s absence.
With no suspensions to report, Omar De Felippe still has a variety of options to choose from but will need to adjust his tactics accordingly to cope without Varaldo. The defense, in particular, will have to be vigilant to avoid lapses that could be exploited by Aldosivi’s attacking players.
Tactical Breakdown:
Central Cordoba de Santiago, under the guidance of Omar De Felippe, will likely adopt a 4-2-3-1 formation for their opening fixture against Aldosivi. This formation allows for a balanced approach, offering both defensive solidity and offensive flexibility.
Key Aspects:
Central Cordoba’s strategy will likely focus on maintaining a solid defensive shape while looking to exploit counter-attacking opportunities, particularly in the second half where Aldosivi have shown defensive vulnerabilities.
