In their last match River Plate enforced their superiority over Banfield with a 4-1 away win. They came away from that fixture with 65% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 7 on target. By comparison, Banfield managed 9 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Martín Demichelis will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 11 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. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 25 games in a row, and they've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 home games.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 6 games.
Lucas Beltrán will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for River Plate.

Defensa y Justicia will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-0 winners in their home fixture against Belgrano. In that game they recorded 48 % of the possession, with 18 attempts on goal, 9 on target. Their opponents found the target on 7 of their 16 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 4 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 games on the road.
Defensa will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Tomás Cardona has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against River Plate.
