Carrera’s goals could be decisive
There is no historical rivalry between these two clubs, but the clash of philosophies makes this matchup a lot more significant than it appears at first glance. Whoever wins will take territory, momentum and the psychological edge into the next clash.
Cristian Llama is the creative spark of the Riestra side and often unlocks defences with his skill on the ball, whether from a set-piece situation or when playing direct. Defender Guillermo Pereira is also important to this team as he gives Riestra that solid structure at the back.
Ramiro Carrera has been in fine form for Lanus over the last few matches and has scored two vital goals for his side in their five game run. He will again be the most likely player to score a vital goal on Monday, which is a key factor to assess in any Deportivo Riestra vs Atletico Lanus prediction.
