In that game, River Plate also had a clear 64% in terms of possession and created more chances but achieved no success. Although they had control and 11 shots, they failed to hit the target, only three shots on target. So the compact defensive set-up on display from San Lorenzo prevented River Plate from playing their way in. River Plate needed better creativity and finishing ability to turn possession into goals, something they will have to do against Independiente.

Overall, Independiente arrives to this tie on the back of a comfortable 2-0 triumph over Gimnasia La Plata.

Control had one balanced side to it as Independiente created 16 scoring chances playing from 57 per cent of possession. Gimnasia’s attacking chances were denied by their defense.
