Unión Santa Fe and Defensa y Justicia meet often enough to count on one hand, and in their last six meetings not one was an open, entertaining affair: three 0-0 draws, plus a 2-0, a 3-0 and a 2-1, one each. This time the pattern may not hold, because Unión Santa Fe are sinking in their worst form of the season. The hosts have lost three in a row, most recently going down 0-3, while Defensa y Justicia also won 3-0 in their last match and are unbeaten in 3 straight. But look only at their away form and the visitors have taken just 1.23 points per game from 13 matches, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game, while Unión Santa Fe at home have taken 1.69 points per game from 13 matches and conceded only 1.0 goal per game. This one looks likely to be the hosts trying to set the tempo at home and waiting for their moment in the second half, which is when the visitors concede most. If Unión Santa Fe control the game and don't concede first, it tends to end with the hosts edging out a vital result.
