Newell’s Old Boys 0 Goal Handicap
In their last ten home fixtures, Newell’s Old Boys won six and drew two covering the 0 goal handicap in those matches. Argentinos Juniors meanwhile failed to cover the handicap in their last four away games.
Argentinos Juniors to Score Under 1 Goal
Newell’s Old Boys had five clean sheets in their last seven fixtures. On the other side, Argentinos Juniors scored one goal or less in their last four away games.
Two wins and a draw in their first three matches of the Liga Profesional saw Newell’s Old Boys collect seven points and take the third position on goal difference. That came after the Lepers finished the first phase of the season with two defeats and finished sixth in the table.
In their last match, coach Javier Sanguinetti’s team returned from Cordoba with a great win by beating Talleres 1-0 and picking up precious three points. Despite the win, the Lepers had fewer ball possession with 41% but the difference was in Sanguinetti’s attack as they managed to convert one of their three shots on target to a goal.
Argentinos Juniors meanwhile picked up six points from a possible nine after two wins and a defeat. In the previous tournament of the season, El Bicho finished fourth and were knocked out of the tournament in the semi-finals at the hands of Tigre.
Manager Gabriel Milito will be worried about his team’s away form as they travel to Rosario where they haven’t won in their last two visits. In addition, conceding in the last six on the road fixtures must urge Milito to take a different defensive approach in Tuesday’s game.
Despite the fact that the level of both teams seems quite equal in recent weeks, nonetheless, Newell’s Old Boys have an impressive home form and seem to be set to maintain it. Thus, we predict a home win in Tuesday’s match.
