Defensa y Justicia, Recent FormA 0-0 draw in their last match against Vélez Sarsfield meant Defensa y Justicia had to settle for a share of the points. In that game they had 51% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Vélez Sarsfield who had 13 attempts and 3 on target.
They have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 2 goals, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 6 goals. They are showing great consistency at The Estadio Norberto Tomaghello in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. With a defensive record of 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches, they can certainly claim to be hard to beat.
There will be mixed feelings from El Halcón de Varela, although undefeated in their last 4 league games at home, 2 of these games ended in a draw.
When it comes to home matches at The Estadio Norberto Tomaghello, Nicolás Fernández will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 5 league goals for Defensa y Justicia in their last 6 home games.
Central Cordoba, Recent FormCentral Córdoba 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 Arsenal de Sarandí. In that game they recorded 34 % of the possession, with 14 attempts on goal, 8 on target. Their opponents found the target on 0 of their 7 shots on goal.
Manager Leonardo Madelón will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 5 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 7 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. 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 poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Defensa y Justicia, losing 1-0 to Central Córdoba.
Defensa have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with El Ferroviario.
With no real injury worries, Defensa manager Julio Vaccari will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
With only Matías Laba (Hip) and Nicolás Leguizamón (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Leonardo Madelón will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
