Head-to-head statistics Rafaela - Patronato

Attack trumps reliability
Atletico Rafaela’s most recent Primera Nacional fixture saw them travel to face Atletico Colegiales, ending in a 1-1 draw on 24 October 2026. The visitors took a first-half lead and outshot the hosts 10-6, but ultimately couldn’t hold on for the win.
Atletico Rafaela head into the end of the season free from any pressure, with promotion and relegation battles now out of reach. Their recent form reflects this lack of urgency: just one win in their last five matches, alongside three defeats and a draw, suggests the side have lost their edge as the campaign winds down. Offensively, Atletico Rafaela remain reliable at home, having scored in 10 of their 11 home fixtures throughout the tournament-a testament to their consistent attacking threat in front of their supporters. Defensively, however, they continue to struggle, conceding an average of 1.6 goals per game even across their last ten outings.
Match Results: Atletico Rafaela

Goal output remains at a minimum
Patronato suffered a 0-2 home defeat to Agropecuario in their most recent Primera Nacional fixture on 25 October 2026. Despite enjoying 64% possession and registering 19 shots compared to their opponents’ nine, the hosts failed to find the back of the net.
Patronato head into their season finale highly motivated to avoid relegation, with the club teetering near the drop zone and every point potentially crucial for survival. However, their away form remains a glaring weakness: just one win in their last twenty-five matches on the road highlights persistent struggles outside their own ground. This season, Patronato average 0.83 goals scored per game - identical to their hosts - but their defensive record stands out, conceding just 0.6 goals on average over their last ten outings.
