Buenos Aires, April 14 (NA) – River Plate will face Carabobo of Venezuela this Wednesday for the second matchday of Group H of the Copa Sudamericana, aiming to recover after a poor debut last week. The match, scheduled for 21:30, will take place at the Monumental Stadium, will be covered live by the Argentine News Agency, and can be watched on ESPN and Disney+ Premium. The referee will be Peruvian Kevin Ortega, while the VAR will be Ecuadorian Carlos Orbe. River comes from a weak start in this Copa Sudamericana, as they drew 1-1 away against Blooming of Bolivia in their debut. In the local tournament, the team led by Eduardo Coudet is going through a great moment in the Apertura Tournament, where they have won their last five matches to place second in Zone B with 26 points, only behind Independiente Rivadavia of Mendoza. Facing this match, Coudet will rotate players since the weekend will be the Superclásico against Boca. In addition, the Ecuadorian midfielder Kendry Páez and the forward Ian Subiabre are still fighting for a spot. Carabobo, for its part, had a great debut in this Copa Sudamericana, where it won 1-0 at home against Bragantino of Brazil.
