However, on the last matchday they drew goalless at home against San Lorenzo and received the bad news that forward Maximiliano Salas, who had become one of the pillars of the team, suffered a sprained knee, so he will be absent for a couple more weeks .

Salas' place could be filled by either Colombian Miguel Borja or fellow Colombian Juan Fernando Quintero, although it is not yet clear which of the two will start.

San Martín de Tucumán, for its part, is led by Mariano Campodónico and is third in Zone A of the Primera Nacional , where it is only three points behind leader Atlanta.

Despite having a strong start to the year, Ciruja comes into this match in a very weak moment, having lost three of its last five matches . Last weekend, it lost 2-0 to Gimnasia y Tiro de Salta on the road.
