River Plate, Recent FormAny River Plate pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 2-1 away defeat by Barracas Central. Their share of possession in that meeting was 66%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Barracas Central, who had 6 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Martín Demichelis will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 13 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have conceded7 goals during those same matches. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 28 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 8 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 8 games.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for River Plate, Lucas Beltrán will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Colón, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Colón supremo Néstor Gorosito after sustaining a heavy 4-0 home loss to Racing Club. In that game they recorded 42 % of the possession, with 6 attempts on goal, 2 on target. Their opponents found the target on 9 of their 18 shots on goal.
When it comes to attacking power Gorosito 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 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have failed to score in 6 of their 10 away games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 5 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Last time these two teams played each other in the league Colón sprung a suprise, upsetting the form book by winning the game 1-0.
River have scored in each of their last 6 games at home in the league against Sabaleros.
River has lost the last 2 times they've faced Colón in the league.
River manager Martín Demichelis has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Elías López (Cruciate ligament), David Martínez (Tendon), Matías Suárez (Knee) and Bruno Zuculini (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Colón manager Néstor Gorosito ahead of this clash, with Joaquín Ibáñez (Muscle) missing out, which gives Gorosito a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
