Independiente set to move into Copa Libertadores spot
On Thursday, Independiente host Rosario Central at the Estadio Libertadores de America, in the Argentinian Superliga.
Independiente are in good form heading into this clash, winning five of their last seven league games. Their recent good run of form has moved the home side up to sixth-place in the Argentinian top-flight, just three points off second place in the table.
Last time out in the Superliga, Ariel Holan’s side recorded a 2-1 win at Arsenal. The win was their third consecutive victory in the Argentinian top-flight. The game was a change of pace for Independiente, as their recent league games have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last ten games in the Superliga.
The home side have a decent recent home record in the league, suffering just one defeat in their last 13 home outings. In keeping with their recent games in general, six of their last seven home games in the Superliga have produced under 2.5 goals.
Rosario Central have turned their Superliga campaign around in recent games, recording three straight wins in the Argentinian top-flight, all by a scoreline of 1-0. The decent run of form has seen the visitors move up to 21st spot in the table.
Low scoring affairs have been the name of the game for Rosario of late, with their last five league games producing under 2.5 goals. Leonardo Fernandez’s side have kept three consecutive clean sheets, which has contributed massively to the low scoring encounters in recent games.
Rosario heads to Buenos Aires in poor form on their travels in the Superliga. The visitors have won just one of their last eight games on the road. However, five of their last eight away games in the Argentinian top-flight have finished all square.
Both these teams head into this clash in good form. Forebet predicts that the home side will record a narrow victory in a low scoring encounter.
