Argentinos Juniors, Recent FormArgentinos Juniors will not be too disheartened with their 1-0 away defeat at the hands of Rosario Central who sit so many places above them in the table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 76%, while racking up 18 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to Rosario Central, who had 6 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Although they have only shipped 2 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 7 goals netted in those 6 matches. The defensive quality of his current squad will be troubling Gabriel Milito of late, his defence having only notched up 1 clean sheet from their last 6 home games.
Argentinos will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Racing Club, Recent FormA 0-0 draw and a point gained against Belgrano in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Racing Club last time out. In that game they had 69% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Belgrano who had 7 attempts and 1 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Fernando Gago will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 5 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. With 4 clean sheets in their last 6 matches, they are proving that they are not easy to defeat.
They have had a good run of form away from home recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 3 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Matías Rojas will be looking to cause Argentinos Juniors some problems having scored 2 goals in Racing Club's last 6 away games in the league.
It was not a positive ending for Argentinos Juniors last time they met Racing Club in the league, with the game ending in a 1-0 defeat.
Playing at home, Argentinos have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Racing.
With no real injury worries, Argentinos manager Gabriel Milito will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
With only Paolo Guerrero (Knee) and Emiliano Vecchio (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Fernando Gago will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
