The campaign of the Racing in the Intermediate Tournament is being very good, since it is unbeaten and in the leadership of its group, of where it does not want to leave. The local team should take advantage of the maximum possible matches to score points and inside the home it is obvious that the important thing is to win, so do not think about being surprised. His idea is to have control of the game from the initial minutes, without letting the opponent play, as this will increase the probability of scoring goals and decrease the chances of suffering goals, that is, would approach a victory.

For this match the coach Julio Fuentes should take to the field what he has of better available.
