Argentinos Jrs experience pressure and fasting before ‘final’ against Corinthians

Argentinos Jrs and Corinthians face each other for Libertadores this Wednesday, 24th, and promise to stir up group E; check out how the argentinian team arrives

O Corinthians arrives pressed in liberatorsbut the scenario will not be different for the Argentine Jrs. The team, which leads group E with seven points, is not experiencing its best phase in the 2023 season. Coincidence or not, the ‘hermanos’ have dropped in production since they faced and beat Timão at the Neo Química Arena. On that occasion, the match ended 1-0 and marked the dismissal of Fernando Lazaro.

A month after that game, Argentinos Jrs will face Corinthians without Redondo, who was one of the highlights in the Libertadores first leg. The midfielder is in the under-20 world cup and will be an embezzlement felt by Milito’s team. However, this is not the team’s biggest problem in the 2023 season. What has been hurting the club is the sequence of bad results.

Since facing Corinthians in the middle of last April, Argentinos Jrs has played in six other opportunities and added frustrating results. During that period, there were three draws, two defeats and only one victory. In addition, what draws the most attention is the fast that the team faces at home.

The last time he won at home was for the Argentine Championship, on April 11, against Unión, by the score of 5-1. The team played at home three more times and did not get great results. At the first opportunity, Argentinos Jrs was defeated by Gimnasia. Later, the club drew with Independiente and, last Friday, the 19th, lost to Boca Juniors by 1-0.

With that, Corinthians’ rivals will arrive for the confrontation with the anxiety for a victory. This could be a differential for Timão to seek a victory that will be necessary and fundamental for the club’s sequence in Libertadores. It is important to remember that the Brazilians are not going through their best phase either and have lost five of the last seven games and have not won for almost a month.

Argentinos Jrs is leader of group E with seven points and still doesn’t know what it’s like to lose in this Libertadores edition. The team achieved two great victories against Corinthians and Independiente del Valle, as well as a draw against Liverpool, from Uruguay. The club arrives as favorites and with chances to define its classification this Wednesday, 24.
