Racing Club

DWWLWL

Racing Club will be looking for an improved result here after the 0-2 Torneo Apertura loss in their previous game against River Plate.

In that game, Racing Club had 50% possession and 12 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. At the other end, River Plate had 10 attempts at goal with 4 on target. Facundo Colidio (33') and Sebastián Driussi (90') scored for River Plate.

Their latest results highlight the fact that things are going according to plan in the Racing Club rearguard. Racing Club have been miserly, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their previous six matches standing at 3. Previous results aside, we’ll just have to find out whether that trend might be sustained in this next match.

Botafogo

WLWWDD

In their last fixture, Botafogo drew 2-2 in the Serie A tie with Coritiba.

In that game, Botafogo had 61% possession and 20 attempts at goal with 8 of them on target. For Botafogo, the scorers were Danilo (55') and Cabral (77'). At the other end, Coritiba got 14 shots on goal with 5 on target. Lopes (33') and Joaquín Lavega (79') scored for Coritiba.

Botafogo have regularly broken through opposing defences of late, having scored 11 goals in their previous 6 matches. While their manager Franclim Carvalho will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Botafogo have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 6 of those same games.

ℹ️ Team News: Racing Club

The Racing Club boss will be grateful not to have any fitness concerns to speak of coming into this game owing to a fully injury-free squad ready to go.

📋 Team News: Botafogo

Botafogo boss Franclim Carvalho has a number of players out of action. Kaio (Knee problems), Alex Telles (Hamstring injury), Joaquín Correa (Knock) and Marçal (unknown injury) are not ready for selection.

💭 Prediction

Botafogo will have to perform well to score goals against this Racing Club team who we think will score one, at least.

Our tip is therefore for a good tussle with a 1-0 win for Racing Club at the end of the 90 minutes.
