What They're Saying
San Lorenzo manager Edgardo Bauza (via ESPN FC): "River pressured us well in the first half and we struggled to get out of our own half. They dominated us. Now, we have to find ourselves in the next match, but we're not changing the characteristics of our team. We have 90 minutes left to play in the Nuevo Gasometro. It's going to be different, with the public in our favor."
River Plate manager Marcelo Gallardo (via Diarioregistrado): "Many things were said during the week. Some justified, others not. You can't analyze one game and think that this team [San Lorenzo] is done. I'm happy with the great resilience and reaction these players had because we canceled out every attribute a team like San Lorenzo has. I think we were far superior."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: One player prepared to return to his 2014 form is River Plate's Teofilo Gutierrez. In 13 appearances last season, the 29-year-old finished with 10 goals. He'll look for more of the same on Wednesday.
River Plate's Projected Lineup (4-4-2 Diamond): Barovero; Mercado, Maidana, Mori, Vangioni; Kranevitter, Sanchez, Rojas, Pisculichi; Mora, Gutierrez
San Lorenzo's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Torrico; Buffarini, Cetto, Caruzzo, Mas; Mussis, Mercier, Kalinski, Barrientos; Blanco, Cauteruccio
