Tigre form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Tigre's two home games in the Superliga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estadio José Dellagiovanna. In general it's been a long time since Tigre tasted defeat here at Estadio José Dellagiovanna, as they have taken at least one point from their last eleven home games in the league.

Tigre are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Aldosivi. Midfield player Prediger got a match rating of 8.21 in that game, the max score being 10. Prediger dribled past the opponent 6 of 7 times and had 49 successful passes (of 55 total).

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Colon.

This is expected to be a close game, with Tigre perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Tigre as a small favourite), we find five games. Tigre has won zero of these, drawn three and lost two.

Early season league goal statistics from Tigre's 2 home games: 2 goals, 1 conceded.

Platense form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Superliga for Platense with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts. Three has not been a lucky number for Platense as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Sarmiento match.

The manager Spontón was unhappy after their last game, played at their home venue Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López. Platense suffered a 1-2 loss to Patronato. Midfield player Schor was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.01/10. Schor served one assist, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 6 of 8 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Union Santa Fe wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Platense playing away and similar expectations, we found 17 relevant matches. Results were eight Platense wins, six draws and three defeats.

2 goals so far away for Platense, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Last three meetings with these teams: Tigre won one, Platense triumphed in zero and we saw two draws. zero games with more than 2,5 goals, three matches with less than 2,5 goals.
