Newell´s Old Boys, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Newell´s Old Boys players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Belgrano. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 0 on target, compared to Belgrano who had 10 attempts and 3 on target.
Having conceded 5 goals and scored just 2 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 7 points. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. With 5 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, they are proving tough to beat at The Estadio Marcelo Bielsa.
They have had a strong run of form at The Estadio Marcelo Bielsa recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Argentinos Juniors, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 4-2 home defeat by Gimnasia y Esgrima will have left the Argentinos Juniors squad feeling a little deflated. They achieved 63% possession in that match and had 21 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Gimnasia y Esgrima's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 10 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being dropped. 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.
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.
On an individual basis, Gabriel Ávalos will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Argentinos Juniors' last 6 league games.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Argentinos Juniors who ended up empty-handed, losing 1-0 to Newell´s Old Boys.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league at The Estadio Marcelo Bielsa, El Bicho de La Paternal have been unable to break through the Newell´s Old Boys defence and find the back of the net. Playing away from home, Argentinos have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against Newell´s Old Boys.
Playing at home, Newell´s Old Boys have won the last 3 and are unbeaten in the last 3 times they have faced Argentinos in the league.
Newell´s Old Boys manager Gabriel Heinze has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Fabián Ángel (Knee), Francisco González (Cruciate ligament) and Genaro Rossi (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Argentinos manager Gabriel Milito ahead of this clash, with Alan Rodríguez (Calf) missing out, which gives Milito a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
