River Plate will face a dangerous away visit this Sunday against Rosario Central for the third date of the Apertura Tournament, where they will seek a new victory that allows them to maintain a perfect score. The match, corresponding to Zone B, will be held at the Gigante de Arroyito stadium. It is scheduled for 21:30 and will be covered live by the Noticias Argentina Agency, and can be seen on TNT Sports Premium. The designated referee was Facundo Tello, who will be assisted by Andrés Merlos from the VAR. River arrives at this match with a perfect score after a very good start in this Apertura Tournament. In the first round, the team led by Marcelo Gallardo won 1-0 away to Barracas Central, while in their next appearance, they showed character to overcome Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata 2-0 at home. This good start allowed the 'Millionaire' to reach this date as the leader of Zone B alongside Independiente Rivadavia from Mendoza, with six points each. Rosario Central, for its part, comes from beating Racing 2-1 away, which allowed it to recover after the home defeat in its debut against Belgrano de Córdoba, in a match that had escaped them unbelievably at the end. The team led by Jorge Almirón, who last year starred in one of the biggest controversies of recent times after the AFA invented the League Champion title overnight, wants to secure a victory that will allow them to position themselves in the top positions of Zone B and establish themselves as one of the candidates to fight for a title on the field.
