This game has plenty of history to look back on. The two teams meet often and have traded wins several times, including the most recent match where Newell's Old Boys went away and beat Unión Santa Fe 3-2 at their own ground. But the situation now is different, because both are struggling in the league in different ways. Newell's Old Boys have picked up a lot of draws, reaching 21 points from 14 matches, but their attack is not particularly fearsome yet, scoring only 13 goals all season. Unión Santa Fe have clear defensive problems, already conceding 23 goals from 14 matches, even though they have scored 21, more than their opponents. This game is likely to be one where both sides are cautious, each waiting for their moment and not opening up to trade blows easily. If either team scores first, the game changes immediately, because the other side will have to push harder and gaps will open. But if the first goal does not come, the game tends to end with a low score.
