Boca Juniors, Recent FormBoca Juniors will have been reasonably pleased with their 2-2 draw against Rosario Central, not least because of the valuable point gained. They achieved 69% possession in that match and had 16 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Rosario Central's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. With no goals in 3 of their last 6 matches at home, they are showing signs of a problem finding the net at their home ground. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
Boca Juniors will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form at The Estadio Alberto J. Armando, they've lost their last 3 league games in a row there and not had a home win in 4 games.
Racing Club, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Racing Club players having failed to take any points away from their recent 3-1 home defeat at the hands of Atlético Tucumán. In that game they had 75% possession and managed 18 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Atlético Tucumán who had 10 attempts and 4 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 10, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Racing Club, Matías Rojas will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league, Boca have been unable to break through La Academia's defence and find the back of the net. Playing at home, Boca have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Racing. Xeneizes have struggled for goals when Racing comes to visit The Estadio Alberto J. Armando, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Boca will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 5 games.
