Losing 1-0 away to Racing Club won't leave the Deportivo Riestra squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 19 places above them in the league.  They came away from that fixture with 25% of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Racing Club managed 20 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.  

It seems pretty certain that Cristian Fabbiani will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 4 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 6 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped.  They have failed to score in their last 3 games in a row.  

They have put together a nice run of home form recently, managing to go undefeated in 5 matches out of their last 6 at The Estadio Guillermo Laza and recording 3 wins in that same period.

River Plate head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 3-1 home win against Tigre in their last league encounter.  In that game they had 61% possession and managed 16 attempts on goal, with 9 on target, compared to Tigre who had 11 attempts and 2 on target.  

It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 14 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Martín Demichelis will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 6 goals in the same period.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.  

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, Miguel Borja will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in River Plate's last 6 league games.
