Independiente, Recent FormIt's fair to say Independiente will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Barracas Central, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 29% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Barracas Central who had 13 attempts and 5 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Leandro Stillitano will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 4 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at The Estadio Libertadores de América. With just 1 clean sheet in the last 6 matches at home, Stillitano will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
They've drawn their last 3 games, but their search for a win in a league game extends even further with 6 consecutive games without a win.
On an individual basis, Martín Cauteruccio will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Independiente's last 6 league games.
Colón, Recent FormColón will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Newell´s Old Boys with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point. They achieved 35% possession in that match and had 16 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Newell´s Old Boys' tally of 12 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
Having conceded 6 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
There will be mixed feelings from Sabaleros, while they've been undefeated in their last 4 league games, they've only manage a drawn in 4 of them.
Ramón Ábila will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Independiente in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Colón.
After a good 0-3 win for Independiente in this pair's last league encounter, Colón will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Independ. will be looking to extend their current run of 7 clean sheets against Sabaleros. Independ. will be confident of finding the net in this one against Sabaleros, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 9 encounters between the two sides.
Undefeated in their last 9 league encounters against Colón, Independ. have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning the last 7 times in a row.
There is only really one injury concern for the Independ. manager Leandro Stillitano ahead of this clash, with Mauricio Cuero (Muscle) missing out, which gives Stillitano a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Colón manager Néstor Gorosito ahead of this clash, with Facundo Farías (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Gorosito a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
