Racing Club de Avellaneda vs Estudiantes de la Plata Preview, Prediction, and Odds| 05 February 2024

Racing Club de Avellaneda will play Estudiantes De La Plata in an important early Professional Cup match. Although both teams are coming off impressive victories, Estudiantes has yet to lose in competition. However, Racing Club has arguably the most impressive win so far. Regardless, this will be a great matchup!

The last five matches have come within a point or less against each other. Therefore, it’s hard to say based on history who has the advantage going in. Three of the past five games ended in draws, as each club also won a match each by a single goal.

However, all of this is in the past! The last time these teams saw each other was last September. Who now holds the advantage heading into this matchup?

Racing Club

Unfortunately for Racing Club, they will be without Roger Martinez. Although his last game saw him find the back of the net, he will be sidelined with a sprained ankle. However, Juan Quintero should be able to pick up the slack in his absence as he will look to make it back-to-back games in which he’s scored.

Overall, this team plays on the front foot and is playing exciting soccer. Even when opponents have it on their end, they are dangerous to threaten the goal on a counter. Regardless of who is on the pitch for this Racing Club, they are an offensive-minded team that will look to put points on the board.

Javier Correa plays an interesting role in this match. He may have torn allegiances despite currently playing for Estudiantes. This is because before joining he played for Racing Club. However, he’ll skip catching up for another time. So far in six games he has yet to find the back of the net, but may be positioned to tonight. Also, the skipper Santiago Ascacíbar will likewise be hoping to once again score. He provided the lone goal in their recent win against Union (Santa Fe).

However, overall, this team is not as explosive going forward in the attack. However, they have been more disciplined in the back. This will be further tested today against Racing Club.

Game Prediction

Realistically this game should favor the away side. Although Estudiantes have been better in the back, they have lacked the final touch in the final third. Also, Racing Club appears to be better going forward at this point in the season. Even though the traveling team is the underdog, I like them to win outright.

Additionally, as this team goes forward, they leave themselves vulnerable, which has been a slight issue so far this season for them. This is why taking the over is the logical move. Either Racing Club will score 3+ goals, or they’ll concede while up, either way, I see them winning.
