RACING AND STUDENTS FACE OFF IN A KEY LEAGUE CUP CLASH
After their exit from the Copa Libertadores, the Academy shifts its focus entirely to the domestic league, where every point matters in the race to improve the annual standing and secure a stronger chance of future continental qualification.
The Sunday fixture closes the third date in Zone B of the 2023 Professional League Cup. Following the painful Libertadores setback, Racing concentrates on the local competition with an eye on building momentum that could influence their continental prospects for the following year.
Avellaneda’s squad arrives off a 2-1 victory over Tigre in their latest league outing and now faces a direct rival in the pursuit of cup places, Estudiantes, who sit eighth in the annual table. Estudiantes has also endured a setback after their exit from the Copa Sudamericana at the hands of Corinthians on penalties, a reminder of how tight the margins are at this stage.
