On Monday night, Banfield host Union Santa Fe in the Argentinian Superliga, as the visitors look to move closer to the Copa Libertadores’ spots.
Banfield are currently experiencing a mixed campaign in Argentina’s top-flight and currently sit 15th in the Superliga. However, the home side are just five points away from the Copa Sudamericana spots in the Superliga.
A 2-0 win at Gimnasia La Plata was the home side’s second consecutive victory in the Argentinian top-flight. The result means that the home’s side’s last six league games have produced under 2.5 goals.
Banfield’s recent home form has been poor of late, as they have won just one of their last eight games in the Superliga. However, that one victory came in their last home game against Newell’s Old Boys.
Banfield’s recent home games in the Argentinian top-flight have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven home games in the league.
Santa Fe are currently eighth-place in the Superliga table and the visitors could move level with fifth place Godoy Cruz, who currently occupy the Copa Libertadores qualifying spot.
Santa Fe have been inconsistent of late in the Superliga, winning just one of their last six games in the Argentinian top-flight. However, three of their last five league games have finished in draws.
Last time out, the visitors ended a five-game winless run with a 3-0 home win over Temperley. The game also ended a run of low-scoring games, as their previous five league games had produced under 2.5 goals.
The visitors have been poor on their travels in the Superliga of late, losing three of their last five league games, while winning just once in the process.
Both teams head into this game in decent form and Forebet predicts that this game will finish in a low scoring draw.
