Platense hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 8 points and a 12th position in the Superliga table. Visiting San Lorenzo holds 7th place with 11 pts.
- Platense have the most dropped points from leading position (6) in Superliga
San Lorenzo could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Copa Libertadores game only three sleeps ago.
Platense form and stats
Overall Superliga stats at home this season for Platense, who have the fewest points (1) at home in Superliga, are 0-1-3 (wins-draw-losses). Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Platense, their manager J. Llop and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.
It's back home for Platense, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Central Cordoba SdE away with the result 1-0. Franco Baldassarra found the net in that victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to Colon (1-3).
The lack of attacking qualities in Platense means that they have only scored 2 goals in 4 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Platense have conceded 7 from these games.
San Lorenzo form and stats
San Lorenzo are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Superliga, having played 3 games and collected 4 points (1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss).
The Lorenzo goalkeeper Jose Antonio Devecchi is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 180 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Home advantage was not enough for Lorenzo in their previous game, as they lost their Copa Libertadores-match, hosting Santos, 1-3. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Rosario Central in the Superliga.
The schedule is very tough for San Lorenzo now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Copa Libertadores game at Santos is waiting in only four days.
The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (2 so far).
