Independiente, Recent FormIndependiente 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. During that encounter they had 47% possession and had 16 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 16 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at The Estadio Libertadores de América, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. Pedro Monzón will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
A win for Independiente is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 10 games.
Martín Cauteruccio will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Independiente.
Racing Club, Recent FormThe 1-0 home defeat to Newell´s Old Boys will not have sat easily with the Racing Club squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 60% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Newell´s Old Boys who had 9 attempts and 2 on target.
Fernando Gago will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. On their travels, they have made a habit of scoring goals, having found the net in 4 of their last 6 outings away from home. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Racing recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Matías Rojas will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Racing Club.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Independiente, losing 1-0 to Racing Club.
Independ. have scored in each of their last 10 games at home in the league against La Academia.
Racing player Gabriel Hauche will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Independ., having scored 3 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
There is only really one injury concern for the Independ. manager Pedro Monzón ahead of this clash, with Tomás Pozzo (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Monzón a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Fernando Gago has a number of injury concerns in his Racing squad to contend with: Johan Carbonero (Cruciate ligament), Paolo Guerrero (Knee), Leonel Miranda (Cruciate ligament), Anibal Moreno (Overload), Gonzalo Piovi (Muscle) and Emiliano Vecchio (Cruciate ligament)
