Boca Juniors have taken 8 of their 14 in total here in their home stadium. What will happen versus Colón?

Insights:
  • Colón have yet to win a game.

The hosts Juniors saw competitive action as recent as three days ago, playing in the Copa Libertadores. That game was an away game at Monagas, so at least Boca Juniors are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Boca Juniors form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Boca Juniors have to build on here at Estadio Alberto José Armando in the Superliga.

The Juniors manager Ibarra and his team return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Monagas in the Copa Libertadores. Defender Fabra got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.91/10. Fabra hit two key passes and won 8 of 11 duels.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Barracas Central and winning 3-0.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Boca Juniors's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 10 games, won 7 matches, drawn 1 and lost 2.

Boca Juniors are traveling soon after this match as the Superliga match at San Lorenzo awaits in three days.

Juniors has scored 6 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. Boca Juniors are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Alberto José Armando in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 5 matches.

Colón form and stats

The visitors are W0-D3-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Superliga. Colón has showed their ability to avoid defeat with six draws in a row, but are also dodging victories. They last avoided the draw 58 days ago, in the Sarmiento fixture.

Colón's last game was the home draw against Atletico Tucuman (0-0). Goltz was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.8. The defender Goltz won 6 of 7 duels.

A 2-2 draw at Independiente's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Colón playing away, we found 4 games. Results were 2 away wins, 1 draw and 1 home win.

A new game in only two days for Colón, the Copa Argentina home match versus Colegiales. Busy days.

The attacking power of Colón when travelling is not overwhelming with 3 goals scored from 4 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Juniors have won at least one point in the last 8 games (6-2-0) against Colón.
