Nothing to worry about in defence for Belgrano, as their goalkeeper Nahuel Hernan Losada has completely shut out the opponents for 250 minutes in the Primera B Nacional.

Belgrano enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Alvarado's place. The match ended 1-0 with Bordagaray scoring. Manager Farré felt very clever after Bordagaray scored the winning goal against Alvarado, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 46th minute.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Estudiantes Rio Cuarto.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
