Independiente Preview
The Rey de Copas has now gone three consecutive games without a win in the Argentine First Division. The team coached by Julio César Falcioni did not have a good season and the mathematical possibility of qualifying for an international tournament through the annual table also vanished.
In total, Independiente has 8 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses this campaign, placing it in 15th place with 31 points. Their most recent match against Barracas Central ended in a 2-2 draw with goals from Juan Cazares and Iván Marcone in the 40th and 75th minutes.
Possible Independiente lineup (4-3-3): Milton Álvarez, Alex Vigo, Sergio Barreto, Juan Manuel Insaurralde, Edgar Elizalde, Gabriel Hachen, Iván Marcone, Alan Soñora, Tomás Pozzo, Leandro Benegas, Juan Cazares.
Banfield Preview
Banfield’s situation is very similar to that of its next opponent. The team coached by Javier Sanguinetti currently occupies 21st place in the PDA with 7 wins, 8 draws and 10 losses. With these results, El Taladro reached 29 points; a number they are looking to change in this Independiente vs Banfield. The albiverdes also failed to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana.
In the most recent league matchday, Banfield won and broke its losing streak. Their victim on this occasion was Aldosivi, who sadly were relegated with the result (1-0). Gregorio Tanco scored for the visitors in the 24th minute. Although the possession and approaches were from the local team, effectiveness won the game once again.
Possible Banfield lineup (4-4-2): Facundo Cambeses, Emanuel Coronel, Gregorio Tanco, Luis Del Pino Mago, José Ignacio Álvarez, Nicolás Bertolo, Lautaro Ríos, Ignacio Rodríguez, Agustín Urzi, Juan Manuel Cruz, Ramiro Enrique.
JefeBet Prediction
For this duel between historic Argentine soccer teams, Independiente vs Banfield, we believe that the home team will take the three points. Independiente’s hierarchy and effectiveness at home could be lethal against a Banfield team that has so far recovered after several winless games. The final stretch of the PDA will always be important in assessing the future of clubs.
Prediction: Independiente win 2-1.
