Platense form and stats

Platense have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the Superliga. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

Stress levels are on the rise for Platense's attacking players as they have now played 180 minutes without scoring in a league game. Contreras was their last goal scorer.

No payout for Platense in their previous match, an away game at Union Santa Fe that ended in defeat 0-1. Defender Infante got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.34/10. Infante hit one key pass and won 6 of 11 duels.

Before that game, the home loss against Banfield with the scoreline 0-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Platense have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 13 games) they have won four times, drawn three and lost six.

Defensively Platense have been outstanding, conceding less than half a goal on average per home game in the league (1 in 3 games). For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Patronato form and stats

No Superliga points yet away for Patronato, from their first 2 matches. Patronato seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Patronato have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 354 minutes ago. Diaz (own goal) was the goal scorer.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, the home defeat versus Sarmiento with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Attacker Barrios got a player rating of 7.75 in the game. "Man of the match" Barrios hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Atletico Tucuman wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

Patronato are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, five draws and nine defeats. From a total of 15 matches.

It's early days yet, but Patronato has scored 1 and conceded 5 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
