Insights:
  • Racing Club have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Colón have the most scored goals in the second half (13) in Superliga

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Copa Libertadores. That game was an away game at Rentistas, so at least Racing are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Racing Club form and stats

When playing at home in the Superliga, Racing Club have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and suffered 1 defeat from 5 games.

Racing drew their last game, 1-1 away at Rentistas. Prior to that, an away loss at Arsenal de Sarandi in the Superliga.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Racing have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found eight matches with the results: Won two, drawn five and lost one.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Racing Club, as the Copa Libertadores home game vs Sporting Cristal is only four days away.

Racing are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 5 games. 6 goals have been conceded.
