Estudiantes de La Plata enter this game with a comfortable 1-0 away win over Tigre last time out in the league.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 41%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Tigre, who had 11 shots on goal with 2 on target.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 9 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches overall.  

Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 12 games in a row.  

On an individual basis, Mauro Méndez has scored in each of Estudiantes de La Plata's last 4 league games.

Last time out, Deportivo Riestra left content aftera 1-0 home win against San Lorenzo  In that game they had 26% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to San Lorenzo who had 6 attempts and 0 on target.  

They have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 3 goals, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 6 goals.   They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 away games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
