Resistencia and Sol de América fans have their most valued supporter shirts and scarves on for this first game week of a new Division 1 season. Game on!

Insights:
  • Resistencia have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Sol de América have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
