Preview: Aldosivi vs. Rosario Central - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Monday's Argentine Primera Division clash between Aldosivi and Rosario Central, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

After picking up only one point from their first five Primera Division matches, Aldosivi will be aiming to claim their first win of the season when they play host to Rosario Central on Monday.

The visitors, meanwhile, are looking to pick up their second victory of the campaign after collecting four points from their five games.


Match preview

Aldosivi are currently bottom of the Primera Division, with their opening five matches yielding just a single point.

They started the campaign with three consecutive defeats before playing out a goalless draw against Platense on matchday four to pick up their first point of the season.

However, they were unable to build upon that point, with last weekend's away meeting with Racing Club resulting in a 5-0 defeat.

Monday's hosts will be hoping that the appointment of Leandro Somoza will bring about a change in fortunes, with the new head coach taking over the reins from interim manager David Villar.

Somoza will be tasked with improving a side that has failed to score in the last four matches, and he will be motivated to guide his team to three points on Monday, with the new boss set to face the side that he left only last month.

As for the visitors, they replaced Somoza with Carlos Tevez, and the former Manchester City player is looking for his first win as a head coach after losing to Gimnasia in his managerial debut.

Tevez will be looking to help his side improve upon a poor start that has seen Rosario Central pick up four points from their opening five matches.

The campaign began with a goalless draw against Lanus, before their first away league trip of the season resulted in a 2-0 defeat to Huracan.

They managed to offer a response on matchday three, beating Godoy Cruz 1-0 thanks to an 84th-minute penalty from Gaspar Servio, but they have failed to score since that strike, with their last two matches resulting in 2-0 and 1-0 defeats.

Having scored only one goal across their five league matches, Rosario Central will be fully aware that they need to improve in the final third if they are to move up the table from 26th position.

Team News

Despite featuring in an Aldosivi side that conceded five goals last weekend, Marcos Miers is expected to keep his place in the side after making his first league start of the season last weekend.

After beginning the last two matches on the bench, Matias Pisano could return to the starting lineup for Monday's contest.

Santiago Silva is expected to lead the line, with the forward looking to open his account for the Primera Division season.

Meanwhile, Tevez could make a change to the Rosario Central defence, with Juan Komar set to replace Cristian Baez in the centre.

The Rosario Central boss could also be tempted to bring Facundo Buonanotte into the side following three consecutive substitute appearances for the 17-year-old.

The visitors may also make a change in midfield with Luciano Ferreyra set to return to the side after dropping down to the bench against Gimnasia.

Aldosivi possible starting lineup:
Devecchi; Lucero, Quintana, Miers, Roman; Cerro, Maciel; Pisano, T. Martinez, B. Martinez; Silva

Rosario Central possible starting lineup:
Servio; Martinez, Komar, Almada, Blanco; Buonanotte, Ferreyra, Montoya, Benitez; Gamba, Veliz


SM words green background

We say: Aldosivi 0-1 Rosario Central

Both teams have struggled in the early stages, but they will be hoping for improved fortunes under their respective new bosses, and we think that with one win under their belt this season that the Rosario Central will have a little bit too much quality for Aldosivi.
