Racing and Wanderers have met often lately, and the results usually end with a narrow margin. The 1-2 and 1-0 scorelines in their last two meetings confirm that this pair never fails to produce a tight contest. This time the difference is that both teams are in a spell where results have not gone their way. Racing have lost 3 in a row without scoring at all in their last two, while Wanderers lost 1-3 in their most recent match, but before that won 2-1 and 2-0 back to back. Racing clearly have a finishing problem. They have scored just 9 goals in 10 matches, and at home in the first half they concede an average of only 0.11 goals, but that has not helped them pick up wins because their attack does not produce goals. Wanderers are not stronger either, but they have the advantage of having scored 13 goals in 10 matches, and as the away team in the first half they trail often, 5 out of 11 matches, which says their away games usually start slowly. If Wanderers sit deep and wait to counter like in the two matches they won 2-0 and 2-1, the game will likely end without a loss, because Racing, who have lost 3 in a row, still show no sign of coming back to score heavily. As for Wanderers, although they lost 1-3 last time out, losing by a margin of 1 goal or more has happened only 2 out of their last 5 matches, while Racing winning by a margin of 1 goal or more has not happened at all in their last 5.
