It’s our belief that La Academia could decide to play in a 3-5-2 lineup with a starting lineup of Facundo Cambeses, Marco Di Cesare, Santiago Sosa, Marcos Rojo, Gastón Martirena, Bruno Zuculini, Matias Zaracho, Adrián Fernández, Gabriel Rojas, Adrian Martinez and Santiago Solari.

In our opinion, Racing Club might well have a job on their hands to break down this Estudiantes de La Plata team who we reckon will end up scoring and staying ahead.

We’re therefore tipping a very even contest with a 1-0 victory for Estudiantes de La Plata at the conclusion of the game.

Little in this one.
