LLWLDL

Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Independiente Santa Fe in Copa Libertadores action, Platense and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

For their opponents, Independiente Santa Fe had 12 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Hugo Rodallega (71') scored for Independiente Santa Fe.

Looking at their form, and Platense have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, conceding 11 goals in all. In defence, Platense have not been doing too well. That kind of pattern isn’t assured to be sustained here, however.

📰 Team News: Corinthians

Kayke (Torn knee ligaments), Tchoca (Pubic bone bruise), Hugo (Knee surgery) and Vitinho (Hip flexor problems) will not be taking part for Corinthians boss Fernando Diniz.

It looks as if Timão may well use a 4-3-1-2 system for this game featuring Hugo Souza, Matheuzinho, Gabriel Paulista, Gustavo Henrique, Bidu, Breno Bidon, Raniele, Allan, Rodrigo Garro, Yuri Alberto and Memphis Depay.

📰 Team News: Platense

Due to a fully healthy squad available to select from, the Platense boss Walter Zunino has no fitness concerns to speak of before this game.

We are inclined to think that Platense seem likely to elect for a 4-1-4-1 system using Matias Borgogno, Agustin Lagos, Ignacio Vazquez, V. Leandro Cuesta, Tomas Silva, Martin Barrios, Juan Gauto, Ivan Gomez, Maximiliano Amarfil, Franco Zapiola and Nicolas Retamar.

🧠 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Corinthians have it within them to get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.

In contrast, Platense may well find it hard to break down their defence although we do think it’s probable that they will be converting at least once here.

We reckon that it will be a fairly comfortable 3-1 winning score for Corinthians come full-time.
