Lanús have less rest than Huracán in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa Sudamericana game only three days ago.

Lanús form and stats

Only two Superliga home games for Lanús so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeat.

The home regulars saw a 0-0 draw against Independiente del Valle in the Copa Sudamericana last time out and are hoping for a win here.

Heartbreak before that as Lanús lost 0-3 at Union Santa Fe's place.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Lanús have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 11 matches with the results: Won 3, drawn 5 and lost 3.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Copa Argentina game versus Godoy Cruz in only two days. This game is also played here at Estadio Ciudad de Lanús - Néstor Díaz Pérez.

Early season league goal statistics from Lanús's 2 home games: 2 goals, 1 conceded.
