Racing Club, Recent FormA 1-1 draw in their last match against Instituto meant Racing Club had to settle for a share of the points. In that game they had 65% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 7 on target, compared to Instituto who had 15 attempts and 2 on target.
Fernando Gago, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 12 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 7 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been mixed fortunes for Racing at The Estadio Presidente Perón recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 home games.
Velez Sarsfield, Recent FormVélez Sarsfield will not be too disheartened with their 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Argentinos Juniors who sit so many places above them in the table. In that game they recorded 39 % of the possession, with 9 attempts on goal, 3 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 15 shots on goal.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Marcelo René Bravo where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. However, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 7 in the same period. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games, and they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games away from home.
A win for Vélez Sarsfield is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 11 games.
Not many saw the outcome of the last meeting between these sides as a surprise, with Racing Club running out winners in a match that ended 2-0.
Racing have managed to keep a clean sheet against El Fortín in each of their previous 2 meetings. In each of their last 5 away matches in the league at The Estadio Presidente Perón, El Fortín have let in at least 1 goal.
Vélez will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 5 times they've visited Racing in the league and not won this away fixture at The Estadio Presidente Perón for 5 games in a row.
Racing manager Fernando Gago has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match.
