Tigre Aiming to Build on Good Start with Win at Boca Juniors
Boca Juniors vs CA Tigre - 16/06/2022
3027
The Argentina Primera Division continues this week and on the 16th of June we have a meeting between Boca Juniors and Tigre.
The match will take place at the Estadio Alberto José Armando and the hosts begin the week in 11th place on 3 points while the visitors are in 3rd place on 4 points.
It is early in the 2022 Argentina Primera Division season and this is only the third round of fixtures in the competition. However, Boca Juniors have made a slow start and having opened their campaign with a 2-1 home victory over Arsenal, they have lost their most recent fixture in the league at Central Córdoba SdE.
It was a disappointing defeat against the team who finished in 22nd place last season and the only goal of the game was scored in the 56th minute.
However, that was the first defeat for Boca Juniors in their 10 most recent fixtures in all competitions. They have won 4 of their last 5 matches, with the wins coming over Tigre and Arsenal domestically plus Deportivo Cali and Ferro Carril Oeste in the Copa Libertadores.
Trends show Boca Juniors are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 home Primera Division games. They have been strong defensively when playing at home in the league and have kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 5 home league matches but have picked up only 4 wins from their last 8 league games inside 90 minutes on home soil.
Tigre make the trip to the Estadio Alberto José Armando on the back of a 1-1 draw at home against Barracas Central.
This was an interesting fixture early in the season between the two teams who won promotion to the Argentina Primera Division last season. Barracas Central opened the scoring midway through the first half but Tigre scored the equaliser with 14 minutes left on the clock.
That result means Tigre have made an undefeated start to the 2022 Argentina Primera Division season having previously beat Unión 2-1 away.
Having fallen a goal behind in the 56th minute, Tigre came back strongly and equalised in the 65th minute. It took only 5 minutes for Tigre to score their second goal, which proved to be the winner.
Trends show Tigre have been defeated by Boca Juniors in their last 5 away games in the league and they have won just 1 of their last 8 away matches against Boca Juniors in the Primera Division.
Team news and Boca Juniors are without the injured trio of Eduardo Salvio, Diego Gonzalez, and Norberto Briasco.
Tigre travel without defender Abel Luciatti who was sent off in their previous fixture. Blas Armoa and Alexis Castro are both on the treatment table.
This match could see one of the early upsets of the season. Tigre do not have a great record when playing at Boca Juniors but that could be about to change this week.
Forebet predicts Tigre to keep a clean sheet and come away with maximum points.
