- 10' Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata have won 178 goals from 193 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ian Subiabre suffering a number of foals already.
