The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 4 draws in the last 6 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 26‑03‑2025, and ended in a (1‑0) win by Racing.

Analysis River Plate

After 3 wins, 10 draws and 17 losses, the home team is in the 16th position, havinf won 1 point so far. In the last match, they have tied at home against Atlético Progreso by (0‑0), after in the previous match they have lost (2‑0) an away match against Boston River. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 draws and 11 losses in away matches, with 7 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 9 goals scored and 18 conceded. In the last 10 home league matches River Plate has a record of 3 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 30 possible. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (7 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, and their offense hasn’t been one of their best features, as they haven’t scored any goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 6 of the last 30 matches for the Primera División, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 2 of those 6 matches and have held on to the lead in 3. They have conceded the first goal in 18 of their 30 matches for this competition, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 14 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 5 of their 8 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

River Plate have had one of the worst campaigns in the league so far. With just two points from seven games, they haven't won or even scored in the competition. The team is in 15th place, trailing only Plaza Colonia by one point. The moment is one of extreme pressure, with four defeats in a row and zero offensive performance. The crisis is deep and the squad's confidence is shaken. Playing at home, the mission will be to break this uncomfortable streak, but this will require a collective leap in performance.

In the last match, they tied in a home match against Boston River, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 18 conceded.

In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (6 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 6 of the last 14 matches for this competition have ended ended with Under 1,5 goals. In 29 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Racing, although only three places above River, are in a similar situation in terms of recent performances. They have also suffered four defeats in their last five games, but have at least managed to score four goals in the league. With seven points in the table, the team is stagnating and needs to react to avoid being swallowed up by the relegation zone. The defence is a major problem, with 13 goals conceded, the second worst rate in the tournament. Against an opponent that has yet to score, this could be the ideal chance to recover.
