River Plate Aim to Dominate Racing at Home
River Plate hold sixth spot after thirteen fixtures, three places above Racing Club. Their recent record includes three wins and just one defeat, a steadier pattern than Racing’s two wins and two losses over five games. At the Monumental, River have scored 1.6 goals per match while conceding 1.1, numbers that match up against an opponent averaging only 1.1 goals away from home. Head to head results show River claiming six victories in the past ten encounters. Racing have found the net at the same rate as River overall this season, yet they leak more goals on the road. The contest may turn on River’s ability to control the midfield and limit Racing’s counter attacks.
