Central y Newell\'s jugaron una nueva edición del clásico de la rosarina.
Fabián Noguera fue titular en Newell\'s por la Copa Argentina y luego ante Defensa en el Clausura.
Central y Newell\'s llegan al clásico rosarino con distintos presentes, pero un mismo objetivo.

Overview

  • The Rosario clásico is set for Saturday at 17:30 at the Gigante de Arroyito.
  • Central coach Ariel Holan will lean on returned world champion Ángel Di María to boost an attack that has yet to fully gel after three home draws.
  • Defender Juan Giménez is sidelined with a knee injury and awaits diagnostic results, prompting potential changes in Central’s back line.
  • Newell’s coach Cristian Fabbiani rested most starters for their recent league draw to focus on the Copa Argentina and now seeks to field Darío Benedetto if he overcomes his injury layoff.
  • With neither side arriving as a clear favorite, the derby carries intense local pressure that could shape both coaches’ reputations.
