Veles Sarsfield
“Veles Sarsfield” after 7 rounds is on the 16th position in the table with 9 points. The team is not very productive. It is in the top five for expected goals scored (xg = 1.22) at home. At the same time, “Fortik” is still lucky in defense. On average, he loses 30% less than expected per match.
At home, Veles Sarsfield is a rather uncompromising opponent. Out of 4 matches, he lost only to Boca Juniors (1:2).
Central Córdoba
Center Cordoba prefers to play as number two with only 37% possession. Such a ball does not allow the club to show a high level of competitiveness. In terms of expected goals scored (xg = 1.12) and conceded (xga = 1.77), they rank 5th and 4th respectively from the bottom of the league.
Leonard Madelon’s men are approaching the upcoming meeting with a three-match unbeaten streak. At home, they managed to beat Tigre (2:0) and unexpectedly Argentinos Juniors (1:0). However, it is different in away games. The team has yet to win away from home this season.
Forecast
Despite the problems in attack, I think the match can be productive. Central Cordoba are clearly enthusiastic after two home victories, and in the visitors’ last meeting against Platense (1-1) created 2.4 xg for two.
