    Defensa y Justicia Team Overview

    The away team played their last official match on as part of the Primera Division tournament (home team - Defensa y Justicia, away - Deportivo Riestra). The match concluded with a scoreline of 2:1.

    Here are the match stats (Defensa y Justicia vs Deportivo Riestra):

    • corner kicks: 5 vs 3;
    • fouls: 13 vs 12;
    • yellow cards: 2 vs 4;

Over their last ten matches, though, the results have been all over the place: three wins, one draw, six defeats. In that run they averaged 1.1 goals scored per game but conceded two. The attack looks a bit more convincing than their opponent's, but the defensive problems are too serious to call them a clear favourite.

    ⭐ Editor's Prediction

    Estudiantes La Plata are the clear favourites here - stronger squad, home advantage. But Defensa y Justicia have started the season well and can make life difficult even for a side of this level. The head-to-head history also points away from a high-scoring night for the hosts: in 14 of their last 15 meetings, Estudiantes scored one goal or fewer. That makes Estudiantes La Plata total goals under 1.5 the most logical bet. Predicted score: 0-0.
