River Plate

WWLWDW

River Plate will be looking for a repeat result of a 1-2 Primera Division (Apertura) triumph over Montevideo Wanderers.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times that River Plate have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. In fact, La Dársena have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 7 goals in the process. We will see if that trend can be sustained into this next match.

Rentistas

🗞️ Team News: River Plate

There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the River Plate manager Jorge Fossati to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength set of players. Facundo Vigo (Ruptured ligaments) won’t play.

📰 Team News: Rentistas

Thanks to a fully healthy squad available for selection, Rentistas manager Martín Varini does not have any fitness concerns to report ahead of this game.

⚡ Prediction

We’re of the opinion that Rentistas have the capability to find the back of the net against this River Plate outfit, but it is unlikely to prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We reckon that it will be a close game with a 2-1 winning score for River Plate after the 90. It should be a decent one.
