Rosario Central, Recent FormRosario Central manager Miguel Ángel Russo will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against Atlético Tucumán. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Atlético Tucumán, who had 16 shots on goal with 6 on target.
Russo 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 4 goals conceded in the same period. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. With 5 clean sheets so far this season, they have one of the best shut out records in the league.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 12 games in a row.
Alejo Véliz will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Rosario Central.
Boca Juniors, Recent FormThe Boca Juniors players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Estudiantes de La Plata recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat. In that game they recorded 68 % of the possession, with 8 attempts on goal, 1 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 6 shots on goal.
Having scored 6 goals and conceded 8 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. On their travels, they have made a habit of scoring goals, having found the net in 4 of their last 6 outings away from home. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
Their current run of form shows 5 defeats in their last 6 outings, and that is certainly something they will want to turn around.
Luca Langoni is the man of the moment at Boca Juniors right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
Rosario have scored in each of their last 15 games at home in the league against Xeneizes. Boca have failed score a goal in 4 of their last 5 league meetings with Rosario. In their past 5 meetings, Los Canallas' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Boca will have to take their chances when they come.
There is only really one injury concern for the Rosario manager Miguel Ángel Russo ahead of this clash, with Alan Marinelli (Broken foot) missing out, which gives Russo a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Frank Fabra (Knee) and Marcos Rojo (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jorge Almirón will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
