Deportivo Riestra preview: Battling for a spot in Copa Sudamericana
As a newly promoted team this season, a team that never played in top flight before either, not many people expected to see Deportivo Riestra in the top half of the standings, but they've had a good season and are currently ninth in the table. In the last six games, Deportivo have notched one win and one loss, along with four draws.
Another positive for Deportivo Riestra at the moment is their clean bill of health.

Velez Sarsfield preview: Leading the title race
Despite winning just two of their last six games in Primera Division, Velez Sarsfield remain at the top of the standings. However, they are currently tied with Huracan, but they do have a game in hand, so a win over Deportivo Riestra would give them a three-point cushion ahead of the final five rounds of the season.
Meanwhile, Ricardo Centurion, Michael Santos, and Alejo Sarco are out with injuries.
