Leandro Diaz will return from suspension here after missing the defeat to Independiente. Diaz will likely return straight into the lineup ahead of Brian Orosco. Pablo Perez will remain an injury doubt for this one. After an impressive victory over Argentinos Juniors, there may be an unchanged side here.
Newell's Old Boys have kept a clean sheet in 6 of their last 8 matches (Liga Profesional). Estudiantes are undefeated in 17 of their last 19 home matches against Newell's Old Boys in all competitions. Estudiantes are undefeated in 12 of their last 13 home matches (Liga Profesional). There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Newell's Old Boys's last 3 games (Liga Profesional).
Estudiantes tasted Liga Profesional defeat for the first time this season against Independiente and will want to quickly bounce back here. There has been a lack of consistency for Estudiantes over the past eight matches in all competitions, with four defeats in that time - prior to that run they went 12 games unbeaten. Newell's Old Boys have made a positive start to Liga Profesional life with ten points from a possible 12 thus far. Despite the positive start, Newell's aren't the most proficient side in front of goal with just four in their opening four games - an unsustainable level should they wish to continue on a winning streak. 2:2
