The Racing Club manager S. Beccacece attacks this game with the team placed 3rd so far. In the visitors dressing room Godoy Cruz and their manager D. Martínez are in 6th place before this match.

Insights:
  • Racing Club have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
  • Godoy Cruz have yet to win a game.

Racing have less rest than Godoy Cruz in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa Libertadores game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Boca Juniors, so at least Racing are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

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

Racing Club form and stats

The fans are hoping that Racing will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Copa Libertadores game against Boca Juniors. 1-1 away at Estudiantes before that.

Racing Club's goalkeeper Gabriel Arias was extremely busy against Boca Juniors, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning eight saves.

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 Racing's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.
