Boca Juniors, Recent FormAny Boca Juniors pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 away defeat by Banfield. During that encounter they had 67% possession and had 13 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 15 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 5 goals shipped and valuable points dropped.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 14 games in a row.
Instituto, Recent FormInstituto manager Lucas Bovaglio will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Atlético Tucumán. They achieved 40% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Atlético Tucumán's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. With 3 clean sheets in their last 6 away league matches, they have shown themselves to be a tough nut to crack away from home.
Instituto 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.
Adrián Martínez 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 Instituto.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at The Estadio Alberto J. Armando, La Gloria have been unable to break through the Boca defence and find the back of the net. In their previous 3 encounters with Boca, La Gloria have shipped at least one goal in those matches.
With only Nicolás Orsini (Muscle) and Marcos Rojo (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Hugo Ibarra will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Instituto manager Lucas Bovaglio has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
