Newell's Old Boys form and stats

The visitors are W7-D1-L5 on the road this term. That's in the Superliga. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Newell's Old Boys are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

Ditta and García scored in Newell's Old Boys's previous match, the home game against Boca Juniors that ended 2-0. Newell's made it very difficult for themselves in their last game, Sforza receiving a red card in the 36th minute. The match was still a draw at this point. But even with this card, Newell's Old Boys won the match 2-0! Ditta, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.64. Ditta scored one goal and won 3 of 4 duels.

A loss against Tigre was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Low on goals? 8 of this side's most recent 10 league rounds have had two goals or less.

Newell's Old Boys have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 13 league away games 14 goals have been scored. It's not easy to score on Newell's Old Boys as they have only conceded 12 goals from these away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
