River Plate preview: On a great run of form
With 12 games without a loss in a row, River Plate are on a great stretch at the moment and that includes an important win over their fiercest Rivals Boca Juniors in the last round, as well as eliminating Colo Colo to secure their place in the semi-final of Copa Libertadores. So, River are flying high at this time and they'll hope to continue that against Talleres.
Meanwhile, River Plate will have to manage without injured Rodrigo Aliendro and Pity Martinez, but they'll also miss Nicolas Fonseca, who is suspended.

Talleres Cordoba preview: Hoping for an upset against the favoured opponent
While Talleres aren't strangers to beating River Plate, they've been in the submissive position against them lately. After all, it was River Plate that eliminated Talleres from Copa Libertadores last month, even though it was a close contest.

Marcos Portillo, Matias Catalan, and Sebastian Palacios are currently out with injuries for Talleres, while Franco Moyano is suspended after getting a red card against Racing in the last round.
Predicted lineup: Herrera (GK), Navarro, Suarez, Mantilla, Riveros, J. Portillo, Galarza, Palacios, Botta, Depietri & Tarragona

Player to watch: Miguel Borja
With seven goals for River Plate in the league this season, the experienced Colombian forward is certainly one of their key players, especially since he's also their top scorer and that's why he's our player to watch in this game too.
