Happy home supporters, the away team steals it or a point each? Anything can happen when the mid-table sides Godoy Cruz and Platense duel at Estadio Feliciano Gambarte.

Insights:
  • Godoy Cruz have the most matches over the total-line (22) in Superliga
  • Platense have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

These are full days for the hosts, as they were in action only three days ago in the Copa Argentina. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Talleres Córdoba.

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

An insane game with plenty of goals last time out for Platense, as mentioned above. 6 goals in total, will this game be as full of joy?

Preceding that game, the 3-3 draw paying a visit to Lanus.
