Loyal fans at Estadio Alberto José Armando haven’t celebrated many victories this season, with Vélez Sarsfield languishing in the 26th spot. The opposing Central Cordoba SdE will believe to shield their higher league place in this game.

Insights:
  • Vélez Sarsfield have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Central Cordoba SdE have won significantly less corners away then at home.

Central Cordoba SdE have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Sarsfield and Central Cordoba SdE.
