Head-to-head statistics Barracas - Argentinos Juniors

Barracas Central Team Overview
Barracas Central have picked up ten points from seven rounds and sit tenth in the group. Across their last ten matches, they have been averaging just 0.6 goals scored and 1.1 conceded per game, so a lack of attacking output remains their main problem. Recent form has been particularly poor: Barracas Central have not won any of their last five matches, losing four and drawing one. With a reasonably solid defensive showing but a clear lack of effectiveness going forward, that becomes a serious concern ahead of a meeting with the group leaders.
