Belgrano and River Plate meet in the Argentinian Division 1 league in clearly different form. The hosts won their latest match 2-0 and are on a run of wins that has left them unbeaten in five. Meanwhile the visitors drew 1-1 in their latest match and lost one of their last five. Belgrano have scored 14 and conceded 7 in 12 matches this season; their defence is what has kept them picking up points steadily. River Plate have scored slightly more with 15 goals but have conceded 13 in the same number of matches, so their defence is not as tight as the hosts', even though the visitors have had more possession and more shots on target in their last ten matches. This game is likely to see Belgrano sit back and wait to counter, especially late on when both teams tend to concede most. What to watch after kick-off is how quickly River Plate can break down the hosts' defence. If the hosts hold firm, the game is likely to end closely contested.
