Going in the matchup, Barracas Central is coming off a win against Sarmiento (3-5), in which Bruno Christian Sepulveda, Ivan Tapia, and Francisco Alvarez scored goals. With three spots on goals, Bruno Christian was simply unstoppable. Barracas have failed to score in its last 4 home games, which is why a share of pressure will be on the home side. Moreover, the conceding rate is also typical, as Barracas Central has conceded a goal or more in its last 11 outings. Since 2019, Barracas Central has won a fixture from two played against Union. In the last 4 home games played, Barracas Central has recorded a total of under 2.5 goals. Hence, for the upcoming fixture a much similar result is expected.

Union Santa Fe - Still Struggling to Find its First Win in 2023 Season (LDLDD)

The 2023 Argentine Primera Division has turned tricky for every team, as winning has completely dried out. Moving forward, Union is coming off a defeat against Instituto (0-2) and a draw against Banfield (0-0). In the last 5 outings, Union has conceded 9 goals at an average of 1.9 goals per game. Hence, Union is likely to struggle in the upcoming away fixture. So far, Union hasn’t netted the ball in the 2023 season, and is likely to stay goalless in the upcoming fixture as well. Kevin Zenon, Enzo Roldan, and Junior Marabel will have to take the responsibility and play with a match-winning approach.
