🗞️ Team News: Fénix

There aren’t many selection issues, with just a single fitness concern for the Fénix gaffer Damián Santín to be concerned with thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Gustavo Viera (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t play.

ℹ️ Team News: Racing Club

Thanks to a largely full-strength squad, there is just the one fitness issue for the Racing Club gaffer Gustavo Fermani to contend with. Erik De Los Santos (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won’t be in action. The players who will not be able to play in this game through being suspended are Matías Benítez and Fabián Píriz.

🧠 Prediction

We feel that in this game, Fénix will most probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

However, Racing Club could well find it tough to break down their defence - but, we do see them getting the chances to score, too.

Accordingly, we see a 3-1 winning score for Fénix at the end of this one.
