Boca Juniors will visit Lanús on Wednesday evening for the seventh matchday of the Apertura tournament. This match could be crucial for the future of the team's head coach, Claudio Úbeda. In this context, Úbeda, who is heavily criticized by Boca fans, has already decided on the starting lineup. According to the Argentine News Agency, Agustín Marchesín will be in goal, with the defense consisting of Marcelo Weigandt, Lautaro Di Lollo, Ayrton Costa, and Lautaro Blanco, the same as in the last match against Gimnasia de Mendoza. As for the midfield, Santiago Ascacíbar, Milton Delgado, and Leandro Paredes will play. The latter will return to the starting lineup after several matches, recovering from the ankle injury he has been carrying in recent weeks. Finally, the forward line will feature Uruguayan Miguel Merentiel, who scored the equalizing goal against Gimnasia de Mendoza, Tomás Aranda, and Paraguayan Adam Bareiro. Boca arrives at this match in a very poor run, having gone four games without a win in the Apertura and currently sitting in ninth place, which would not qualify them for the playoffs. Lanús, on the other hand, is riding high after winning the South American Recopa by defeating Brazilian Flamengo at the legendary Maracanã Stadium.
Boca's lineup to visit Lanús: Agustín Marchesín; Marcelo Weigandt, Lautaro Di Lollo, Ayrton Costa, Lautaro Blanco; Santiago Ascacíbar, Milton Delgado, Leandro Paredes; Miguel Merentiel, Tomás Aranda and Adam Bareiro. Coach: Claudio Úbeda.
