A Spectacle of Goals in Argentine Primera Division
Key Stats
– Argentinos Juniors have only conceded 19 goals this season, tying for fourth in goals conceded.
– Barracas Central have successfully come back to earn a point five times after conceding the first goal.
The Argentine Primera Division is set for a fascinating encounter on Monday as Barracas Central return to Claudio Fabian Tapia Stadium, looking to extend their unbeaten streak to five matches. Their challenge comes in the form of Argentinos Juniors, who are hoping to rebound from a scoreless draw against Instituto. The upcoming clash will no doubt be a thrilling spectacle that could tilt the balance of the league table.
A Tale of Two Sides
Under the management of Sergio Rondina, Barracas Central have showcased their remarkable defensive solidity since mid-April, despite the inconsistency in their attacking front. Seven clean sheets, including a goalless draw against Velez Sarsfield, is a testament to their defensive prowess. However, their attack has been somewhat lethargic, failing to find the back of the net in four instances over the same period.

The squad, nonetheless, has an opportunity to achieve something unprecedented since their return to the top flight — winning three consecutive domestic games. Their confidence is at a high, thanks to a six-match unbeaten streak at home, with impressive victories over giants like River Plate and San Lorenzo. Their comeback against Talleres Cordoba, where they rallied from two goals down to a 2-2 draw, illustrates their tenacity.
The team has demonstrated exceptional resilience, often bouncing back to earn a point after conceding the first goal. Their attacking prowess in set pieces is a testament to their tactical brilliance, using physicality and aerial superiority to their advantage.
Argentinos Juniors, on the other hand, find themselves in a challenging situation. They have a busy away schedule, and it is crucial to recapture their winning momentum, having last won an away match on matchday 20 against Velez Sarsfield. Head coach Gabriel Milito’s defensive approach has borne fruits with his team only conceding 19 goals this season, tying for fourth in goals conceded.
The Journey So Far and What’s Next
The opening phase of the competition is nearing its conclusion, and both teams are positioned strategically. Barracas Central’s performance in recent matches indicates a possibility of matching or even surpassing their points total from the previous campaign’s second round.
Milito’s Argentinos have a firm objective ahead – to claim maximum points in three of the next four matches. It’s a tall order, considering they are currently sitting on 33 points, nine shy of their last season’s haul. Their previous encounter with Barracas Central ended favorably for Argentinos, with a stunning 3-1 victory. The team has shown strong resolve, particularly when protecting leads, a trait they will hope to emulate in this clash.
Barracas Central, however, will be keen on settling the score. Their impressive comebacks this season, coupled with Argentinos Juniors’ recent dip in form, suggest a potential upset. Despite the latter’s history of holding onto leads, Barracas Central’s resilient mentality might be enough to disrupt this pattern.
Team Form and Player Watch
On the player front, Ricardo Centurion of Barracas Central is recuperating from a thigh injury and might return by the end of the next week. Barracas’s victory over Belgrano was marked by goals from Francisco Alvarez and Brian Calderara, with Andres Desabato registering a clean sheet.
Argentinos Juniors will be without Facundo Ferreyra until mid-July due to a calf injury. Leonardo Heredia, a key player for the team, has found the back of the net in two of their last three road matches, a stat that bodes well for the away side.
While Argentinos Juniors have displayed fatigue due to the dual responsibilities of domestic and Copa Libertadores campaigns, Barracas Central have been showing impressive consistency. Their ability to eke out positive results against formidable opponents indicates a possibility of overcoming the challenge posed by Argentinos Juniors.
Predictions
Considering all the data and recent performances, the main prediction for this match is Over 2.5 Goals. Given Barracas’s proclivity for comebacks and Argentinos’s tendency to protect leads, this game is likely to see at least three goals scored. Furthermore, considering that Argentinos Juniors are on the brink of going goalless in three consecutive league fixtures for the first time since last season, they will likely push for goals in this match.
The correct score prediction is a 2-1 win for Barracas Central. This scoreline is justified by Barracas’s recent home form and their resilience in bouncing back from conceding the first goal. It’s also supported by Argentinos Juniors’ recent goal-scoring struggles in the domestic league.
