Superliga: Two sides who have done nicely up to now. Let's get ready for Racing Club - Newell's Old Boys with this comprehensive preview!
- Racing Club have not yet lost a game at home.
- Newell's Old Boys have yet to win a game away.
It's no vacation for neither Racing Club nor Newell's Old Boys as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Racing Club form and stats
Racing Club have collected 11 points from their Superliga home games so far after 3-2-0. Nine out of nine points from the last three home games for Racing, and the home supporters are ready to scream their lungs out to keep the winning streak alive.
Racing Club are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Gimnasia La Plata. The first setback in the shape of a loss after collecting points in three league rounds. The attacking player Reniero was announced as "man of the match" for Racing Club with a rating of 7.14/10. Reniero served one assist and hit one key pass.
Before that, a nice away victory at Nublense. A Copa Libertadores match. The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Racing Club handle that role? We have found 19 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are 11 wins, 5 draws and 3 defeats.
The manager Gago will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Independiente in only four days.
The Racing fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. Racing Club are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Presidente Juan Domingo Perón in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 4 from 5 matches.
Newell's Old Boys form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Superliga travels is 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats.
Recalde was the last player to score for the away team. Newell's Old Boys haven't scored a league goal in the last 193 minutes.
Newell's delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Rosario Central (placed 4th) in their previous game. Hoyos was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.04. The agile goalkeeper Hoyos topped it up with a clean sheet.
Ahead of that, the Copa Sudamericana win away at Audax Italiano. We have checked recent matches where Newell's Old Boys have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 21 games were 7 victories, 3 draws and 11 defeats.
After this away game Newell's return home for a Superliga game against River Plate. That game is only four sleeps after this.
The attacking power of Newell's Old Boys when travelling is not overwhelming with 4 goals scored from 5 league matches away.
