River Plate, Recent FormRiver Plate will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their away outing against Newell´s Old Boys. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Newell´s Old Boys' tally of 12 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Martín Demichelis will be delighted with his team's performances recently, with them having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games without conceding a single goal. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 18 games. They will be looking to continue their impressive run of clean sheets which now stands at 7 in a row.
They are showing impressive league form with a run of 7 straight wins in a row and are also unbeaten in their last 7 games.
On an individual basis, Matías Suárez has scored in each of River Plate's last 4 league games at The Estadio Mâs Monumental.
Independiente, Recent FormIndependiente will have been reasonably pleased with their 1-1 draw against Racing Club, not least because of the valuable point gained. They came away from that fixture with a 42% share of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Racing Club, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Pedro Monzón will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 5 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
A win for Independiente is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 11 games.
Independiente suffered the disappointment of a 0-1 defeat at the hands of River Plate the last time they met in the league.
The El Diablo Rojo defence has struggled at The Estadio Mâs Monumental, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 15 visits.
In the league, River has had a good run at home against Independ., being unbeaten in their last 5 meetings at The Estadio Mâs Monumental.
River Plate 3 - 1 IndependienteRiver manager Martín Demichelis has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Nicolás de la Cruz (Knee), Matías Kranevitter (Broken ankle), Elías López (Cruciate ligament), David Martínez (Tendon) and Bruno Zuculini (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Independ. manager Pedro Monzón ahead of this clash, with Tomás Pozzo (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Monzón a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
