THE PREDICTION
Despite having not perhaps started as strongly as they would have wanted, River Plate gave everyone a timely reminder of the quality within their side after thrashing Godoy Cruz 1-6 away from home last weekend. Back on their own patch, River Plate will be determined to take their momentum gathered from such a resounding win into this encounter, with Racing Club the visitors. That won’t prove easy, with Racing coming off the back of three successive victories and having not lost in their last five league matches. Only one point separates the two sides in the table and Racing are likely not to take any unnecessary risks, knowing that a draw keeps them above River Plate. This may lead to a frustrating match for the hosts as Racing put men behind the ball and make themselves difficult to break down. With that in mind, it may be worth favouring the draw in this one with a point certainly not a bad result for either side.
