River Plate, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the River Plate players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Belgrano. In that game they had 66% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Belgrano who had 3 attempts and 2 on target.
Manager Martín Demichelis will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They are showing great consistency at The Estadio Mâs Monumental in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. Demichelis will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home matches.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
When it comes to home matches at The Estadio Mâs Monumental, Miguel Borja will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 5 league goals for River Plate in their last 6 home games.
Argentinos Juniors, Recent FormArgentinos Juniors will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their home fixture against Racing Club. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 18 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Racing Club had 5 shots on goal with 1 on target.
4 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 2 goals in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. They are proving tough to beat, keeping 4 clean sheets in their last 6 games.
Argentinos 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.
On an individual basis, Gabriel Ávalos will be looking to cause River Plate some problems having scored 3 goals in Argentinos Juniors' last 6 away games in the league.
Argentinos Juniors will be looking to forget their last league encounter with River Plate, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 0-3 defeat.
River have managed to keep a clean sheet against El Bicho de La Paternal in each of their previous 2 meetings at The Estadio Mâs Monumental. El Bicho de La Paternal have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with River. Argentinos have struggled to break down the El Millonario defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
River has won the last 2 games they've played against Argentinos in the league.
