The season is still fairly new and the Primera Division table has to be read with caution. So far Racing find themselves in 16th position and Fénix are placed 9th.

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.

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.

Racing form and stats

Racing, who have the fewest scored goals (1) in Primera Division, have played 1 Primera Division games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 0-1-0 (wins-draws-losses).

The fans are hoping that Racing will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the Primera Division game against Nacional (placed 1st). Preceding that game was the home draw versus River Plate that ended 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Racing have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 19 matches with the results: Won 6 Drawn 4 Lost 9.

There will be little rest for Racing after this match as they are travelling to Progreso for a Primera Division game in only one day.

A quick return to home after this game, as Fénix are hosting Boston River in the Primera Division only one days away.
