It is possible that as Boca will continue this Friday the 12th at 7:30 p.m., the remaining sixty-seven minutes of the suspended match against Estudiantes in La Plata, andCoach Diego Martínez puts in place an alternative team similar to the one that played in the Bolivian high altitude but with two important new features: Edinson Cavani and Sergio Romero are already available after their injuries and it is possible that they will start.

But the coaching staff He will evaluate whether he risks it against the Paraguayans or preserves it to go to La Plata. Meanwhile, Romero is in a position to return after an inflammation he suffered in the Achilles tendon of his left foot during the match on the second day of the League Cup against Sarmiento de Junin at the San Lorenzo stadium.

The most likely thing is that Romero goes to the bench against Trinidad and Leandro Brey continues to start this Tuesday and on Friday against Estudiantes.
