Rosario Central, Recent FormRosario Central had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 1-1 draw against Racing Club. Their share of possession in that meeting was 41%, while racking up 19 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Racing Club, who had 19 shots on goal with 6 on target.
Although they have only shipped 3 goals in their past 6 matches, they have taken a relatively modest return of points from those games, primarily due to an indifferent return at the other end with 4 goals netted in those 6 matches. At home this season, they have scored in 12 of their 13 home games and notched up 6 clean sheets.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 19 games in a row.
River Plate, Recent FormRiver Plate will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-1 win in their home outing against Estudiantes de La Plata. In that game they had 58% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Estudiantes de La Plata who had 22 attempts and 2 on target.
Manager Martín Demichelis will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games; however, overall they've scored in 24 of their 25 games this season.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Nicolás de la Cruz will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in River Plate's last 6 league games.
Last time these two teams played each other in the league Rosario Central sprung a suprise, upsetting the form book by winning the game 1-2.
As away records go, El Millonario have built up a decent scoring streak against Rosario in the league, having scored at least 1 goal in each of their last 8 away meetings.
When playing away from home in the league, River have failed to win any of their last 4 meetings with Rosario, with the last 3 of those games ending in a draw.
There is only really one injury concern for the Rosario manager Miguel Ángel Russo ahead of this clash, with Walter Montoya (Ankle) missing out, which gives Russo a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Martín Demichelis has a number of injury concerns in his River squad to contend with: Elías López (Cruciate ligament), David Martínez (Tendon), Matías Suárez (Knee) and Bruno Zuculini (Cruciate ligament)
