Emelec visits the city of Ambato to face Técnico Universitario this Thursday evening in the third date of the second phase of the Pro League. The Blues will look to come away with a win after adding four games in a row without knowing what it means to win in the state tournament.

Those led by coach Hernán Torres did not have a great start in the second half of 2023. At the behest of the Colombian, Bombillo was eliminated from the Copa Sudamericana and failed to win in the first two days of the local tournament.

In addition, casualties in electrical equipment continue to be added. Michael Carcelén, who sprained his ankle, will not be able to play on this date.

The Blues have confirmed that Michael Carcelén will be sidelined for a maximum of three weeks.

Through an official statement, the Blues confirmed that he has a grade two ankle sprain.

The expected recovery time for the former Barcelona player would be 15 to 21 days. This will keep Carcelén out for the next matches against Técnico Universitario, Delfín and Aucas in the Pro League.

The Ecuadorian midfielder joins the list of injured in the electric commission led by the first figure, Miller Bolaños, as well as Alejandro Cabeza and José Francisco Cevallos. The latter would have a microtear in his adductor, according to Blues coach Hernán Torres at training last Tuesday.

“Miller’s injury is a sprained wrist; and that of Cabezas, in the meniscus (…). Cevallos has a microcrack in his adductor. Carcelén is articulate, not muscular; Farin was a blow to the knee,” said the coach.
