A 0-0 draw against a big side in Racing Club will probably see an unchanged XI despite a lack of any real attacking intent. Joel Sonora missed the draw against Racing and is expected to remain sidelined here, albeit with a short-term injury. Martin Rabunal remains out as a long-term absentee with a recent setback in his recovery extending that period on the sidelines. Despite defeat to Boca Juniors last time out, an unchanged XI is expected given they scored eight in two in the games prior to that defeat.
There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 9 of Banfield's last 10 games (Liga Profesional). Banfield are undefeated in 14 of their last 15 home matches against Rosario Central in all competitions. Banfield have failed to win their last 9 home matches (Liga Profesional). There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Rosario Central's last 3 games (Liga Profesional).
Banfield joined the 0-0 club that so many have succumbed to against Racing Club. Their issue is that it made it seven games without victory as they languish third-bottom in the league. The hosts are the division's joint-second lowest scorers so far this season with seven goals from 10 games, a record that sees no signs of changing anytime soon. While the likes of Marco Ruben and Lucas Gamba have topped Rosario's scoring charts with three each, 19-year-old starlet centre-back Gaston Avilla joins them on three and is always a threat from set pieces. Nine goals in their last three games has finally seen Rosario click in front of goal at a time when they looked prime to slide down the table, so expect real attacking intent from the visitors here. 1:3
