Insights:
  • Central Cordoba SdE have the most matches under the total-line (21) in Superliga

These teams have little in common geographically as Central Cordoba SdE have to travel 1000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Racing Club form and stats

Racing Club have collected 20 points from their Superliga home games so far after 5-5-3. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Racing.

Racing Club's previous fixture was a Copa Argentina game also played at their home, ending 2-1 versus San Martin Tucuman. The home side are looking to build on that result.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus Rosario Central that ended 1-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Racing Club have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 18 games) they have won 11 times, drawn 4 and lost 3.

Racing are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 17 goals in 13 games. Racing Club's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 16 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
