Argentinos Juniors, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-1 away win against Atlético Tucumán in their latest league match, Argentinos Juniors will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to Atlético Tucumán, who had 10 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Gabriel Milito will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 11 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in 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.
With 7 league goals in 6 games at home in The Estadio Diego Armando Maradona, Gabriel Ávalos will be feeling confident about hitting the net again in this home encounter.
Boca Juniors, Recent FormBoca Juniors will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Belgrano. They achieved 66% possession in that match and had 21 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Belgrano's tally of 7 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Jorge Almirón will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 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've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
Their form away from home has been of some concern, having recorded just 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches on the road.
On an individual basis, Martín Payero has scored in each of Boca Juniors' last 2 league games.
Boca Juniors suffered the disappointment of a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Argentinos Juniors the last time they met in the league.
