Platense started the Clausura with a draw, but then lost two matches in a row and have just one point after three rounds. In their last ten matches the team averaged just 0.9 goals scored and 1.5 conceded per game, so the problems are visible both in attack and at the back. The attack looks particularly weak, lacking the consistency and sharpness needed to pick up points regularly. With Independiente having made a confident start, it won't be easy for the visitors to turn their poor run around.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Independiente are considered clear favourites for the upcoming match, which makes sense given their higher class and strong start to the season. Platense look noticeably weaker so far, and away from home they have particularly serious problems: the team have failed to win in 13 of their last 14 away league matches. The hosts have enough advantages to count on three points. So our bet is an Independiente win. Predicted score: 1:0.
