Barracas Central vs. Banfield Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Barracas Central and Banfield, taking place on Sunday, 15 September 2024, at The Estadio Claudio Chiqui Tapia in Barracas.
Barracas Central, Recent Form
There will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Barracas Central players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Defensa y Justicia. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Defensa y Justicia who had 7 attempts and 2 on target.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Alejandro Orfila where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 10 in the same period. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and this season they have failed to score in 8 of their 13 games.
A win for Barracas Central is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 12 games.
Banfield, Recent Form
With Instituto sitting a clear 23 places above them in the table, Banfield won't feel totally dejected with their 2-1 home defeat by them last time out.
When it comes to attacking power Gustavo Munúa will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 4 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've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Banfield, Bruno Sepúlveda will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Barracas Central vs. Banfield Head to head
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that the 2 sides have met in the league.
