River Plate, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 1-0 away win over Tigre in their last league game, River Plate will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. In that game they had 55% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Tigre who had 15 attempts and 3 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 consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 10 games. It's clear that with only 1 clean sheet from the last 6 matches at home, Demichelis will have some concerns regarding his squad's defensive abilities of late.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
With 5 league goals in 6 games at home in The Estadio Mâs Monumental, Miguel Borja will be feeling confident about hitting the net again in this home encounter.
Arsenal de Sarandi, Recent FormThe Arsenal de Sarandí squad will be looking to reset their fortunes after their heavy 3-0 home defeat at the hands of Racing Club. They achieved 35% possession in that match and had 10 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Racing Club's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 9 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 10 goals and some valuable points in the process. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
River have managed to keep a clean sheet against El Viaducto in each of their previous 2 meetings. The El Viaducto defence has struggled at The Estadio Mâs Monumental, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 12 visits.
Playing at home, River have won the last 2 and are unbeaten in the last 12 times they have faced Arsenal in the league.
River manager Martín Demichelis has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Nicolás de la Cruz (Knee), Paulo Díaz (Meniscus), Elías López (Cruciate ligament), Emanuel Mammana (Hamstring), Matías Suárez (Knee) and Bruno Zuculini (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Arsenal manager Carlos Ruiz has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
