Boca Juniors Eye Revival against Unsettled Union
Key Stats
– Boca’s Turnaround: Boca Juniors have scored an impressive six goals in their last two matches, reflecting a significant improvement in their offensive performance.
– Scoring Woes: Union currently have the fifth-lowest goal tally in the league, with only 17 goals in 22 matches, underscoring their struggle in the offensive end.
As the Argentine Primera Division unfolds, one fixture that is set to capture the headlines this week is the encounter between Union and Boca Juniors. Scheduled to take place at the Estadio 15 de Abril in Sante Fe, this contest will pit the reigning champions Boca Juniors, seeking to ascend to the top eight, against a resilient Union team aiming to extend their home unbeaten run to four games.
A Closer Look at Union’s Performance
Union’s recent performances in the Primera Division have been a mixed bag. They rode on a six-game unbeaten league streak, only to stumble against Atletico Tucuman in an away game. Their 1-0 loss was a significant departure from their comfortable 3-0 home victory against Independiente, which indicated their prowess at home. The side managed by Kily Gonzalez failed to showcase their lethal touch in front of the goal against Tucuman and paid the price with a narrow defeat, the only goal being an 18th-minute penalty.

Despite their undeniable spirit, Union have been marred by inconsistency this season. Their position in the league table reflects this, as they have only managed to secure victories in five of their 22 matches, placing them 24th in a league of 28 teams. Furthermore, their offensive output has been meagre, with only three other teams having scored fewer goals (17).
Yet, Union have proven to be a force to be reckoned with on their home turf. They have gleaned seven points from their last three matches at Estadio 15 de Abril, a stat that should bolster their confidence heading into the upcoming match against Boca Juniors.
Boca Juniors: A Glimpse into the Struggles and Strengths
Boca Juniors, on the other hand, have had a somewhat turbulent journey in the 2023 Primera Division. Currently positioned 11th in the table, they are a considerable 19 points behind the league leaders, River Plate. A string of four consecutive away defeats has contributed to this state of affairs, indicating that they are struggling to replicate their home form on the road.
However, the Buenos Aires giants have shown signs of a revival recently, following their disappointing start to the season. They managed to bounce back with a convincing 4-0 Copa Libertadores group-stage victory against Monagas and a 2-0 league win over Sarmiento. Their top scorer, Miguel Merentiel, who has netted six goals this term, was a crucial figure in their resurgence, scoring the opening goal in their latest victory.
Upcoming Match: A Predictive Analysis
While both teams desperately need a win to boost their league standings, the upcoming match seems to favour Boca Juniors. However, considering Union’s unbeaten run in their last three encounters with Boca and their solid home record, a goal fest may not be on the cards. Despite this, one prediction that seems plausible given the current scenario is Over 1.5 Goals. This prediction is primarily based on Boca’s recent offensive resurgence, coupled with Union’s need to improve their offensive record.
Although both teams have their unique strengths, a 2-0 victory for Boca Juniors seems like a likely outcome in the correct score market. The motivation for this prediction lies in Boca’s recent uptick in performance, combined with Union’s struggle for goals this season.
