As they did so with a 3-2 win against Racing Club in a stirring tie, Argentinos Jrs come into this one on the back of a victory. The team battled back to make it 3-0 down by the 47th minute only to show great resilience and turn the game around. Di Cesare M. cut the deficit further in the 88th minute, before Barrios M. got the comeback started in the 83rd minute. The comeback almost paid off, despite serving as the late push for their draw. They were statistically in front on the possession count as Argentinos Jrs held the possession edge (53%) but what allowed them to come out on top was their clinical finishing in the second half. Total shots had 13, of which three were on target, and 2 big chances created. This upcoming match will crucially hinge off their late attacking pressure, their one quality that shone in a match they won. After seeing their momentum and leading with home advantage, Argentinos Jrs will strive to continue this and be more defensive in the effort not to fall into an early deficit.
Ind. Rivadavia (LLDWD)
For their part, Independiente Rivadavia lost 1-4 away to Lanús who pushed their opponent to the limit. Villalba I. had been sent off in the 12th minute when he picked up red, meaning they started the game one man down and were down a man for the entirety of the game. This gave Romero D. the chance to strike twice in the opening half and give Lanús complete control. Lanús had the better of things, scoring a second late on when Valenti M. turned into his own net, and Retamar K pulled one back in the 71st minute. Their defense, 21 shots allowed, 5 big chances and only 6 shots on target, had plenty to do and they struggled to contain their opposition. This is where their defensive weaknesses showed and they have to address it before having to face an Argentinos Jrs side that are looking to threaten themselves.
Expert Betting Tips
Independiente Rivadavia have been found out defensively in recent games and Argentinos Jrs enter this match with a sharper attacking quality. The home side has it on their side though, after they collect a win and Independiente Rivadavia manage to concede defensively. But Independiente Rivadavia have scored too, and this looked a tough match.
