START TO GAME

Hosts River Plate have been at their best at home this season, with 12 wins and just one loss in 13 Argentine Professional League matches. 

Los Millonarios are on an 11-game winning streak at home, dating back to March 12 against Godoy Cruz. 

Barracas Central has three wins, five draws and five defeats away from home this season in league matches.

Never in the Demichelis era had River conceded two defeats in a row, that is why today it is more than necessary for El Millo to get the three points. At home, they can't let points slip away if they don't want to lose sight of the title.

Bruno Sepulveda, Barracas Central's forward has played 25 games in the season, has 5 goals and one assist in all of 2023. 

The Barracas team is looking for a shock when they face River, the red and white team is coming from a 1-0 away loss to Velez in Liniers. Away from the relegation issue in the accumulated table, Central will try to get as many points as possible in this Cup.

Nacho Fernandez is the key man for Martin Demichelis. The offensive midfielder is the driving force of the River Plate team, he has played 26 games this season, scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists.

Demichelis' powerful River seems to be in a results crisis after their elimination from the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, and their debut in the Copa de la Liga, where they lost 3-2 to Argentinos, was not at all encouraging. 

Now, against Barracas Central, El Millo will be looking to cut a streak of two defeats in a row, an eventuality that is happening for the first time in the Micho's era.
