Rosario Central form and stats

No Superliga points yet away for Rosario Central, from their first 2 matches. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Rosario's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Home advantage was not enough for Rosario in their previous game, as they lost their Superliga-match, hosting Aldosivi, 1-2. Midfield player Pedro Emanuel Ojeda was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.42/10. Ojeda hit one key pass, dribled passed the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 69 successful passes (of 80 total).

A 0-1 defeat away at Gimnasia La Plata before that.

A new game in only four days for Rosario, the Copa Sudamericana home match versus Bragantino. Busy days.

It's early days yet, but Rosario Central has scored 1 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last four meetings between these two teams are: one win for Sarmiento, two draws and one win for Rosario Central. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: three games.
