This has not been a great campaign for Barracas Central. They are currently at the bottom of the Liga Profesional table with just two wins in 16 league matches. Ruben Dario Insua’s men will host an Independiente Rivadavia side that managed one win in their previous eight games (D2, L5).
Considering their home advantage, Barracas Central are the expected winners at 7/5 (2.40). Teams with these odds usually have a 41.7% probability of winning.

Player to watch: Alan Cantero
Alan Cantero put in a man-of-the-match performance the last time these teams met, scoring twice. Although he was one of the highest-scoring midfielders in the Copa de la Liga Profesional, the former Godoy Cruz player has not scored in 11 Liga Profesional appearances so far. Given that Independiente Rivadavia conceded in seven of their last eight matches, it will be interesting to see if Cantero can get back to scoring ways.
