Newell's Old Boys and Lanús meet often and the results rarely end level, especially the most recent match where Lanús thrashed them 5-0. This time, though, the two sides look closer than ever. Newell's Old Boys have gone five matches without defeat, but they drew as many as three and won only one of the two they did win. Their attack still isn't sharp enough to close out games. Lanús, meanwhile, are hotter with three straight wins, including a 2-1 win in their latest match, even though they conceded in every one of those games. If Lanús score first, they will likely drop back and wait to counter, and that is the situation where Newell's Old Boys still have no clear answer for how to break down a set defence. The game looks likely to end tight and goals are unlikely to be plentiful.
