Our Prediction for Defensa y Justicia vs Racing Avellaneda
The team from Florencio Varela, a suburb of Buenos Aires, failed to impress last season. They finished only 21st in that Primera. However, in the overall table, they secured 12th place, which allowed them to qualify at least for the Copa Sudamericana. The current visitors managed to close out the top three, trailing the runners-up, Talleres, by only two points. And most importantly, they won the Copa Sudamericana and at the start of 2025 also claimed the Recopa, the local equivalent of the UEFA Super Cup—beating Botafogo 2-0 twice.
Currently, Diego Milito’s side are playing in the Copa Libertadores. After thrashing Fortaleza away, they then lost at home to Colombian side Atletico Bucaramanga. In the third round, they shared the points with Colo-Colo in a 1-1 draw. In the Primera, after a couple of wins, they went on a dismal stretch with six defeats in nine rounds. But in April, their form finally improved: they won three in a row. De Muner and his squad started the Copa Sudamericana campaign with goalless draws against Cerro Largo and Vitoria. This week, they lost away to Universidad Catolica Quito, 1-3. After a strong start in the domestic league (five wins in the first nine rounds of the Primera and a cup win over Central Cordoba), they then lost three times in a row, and only managed draws against Union Santa Fe and Huracan.
Ramirez and company average 1.07 goals scored per game, but concede more—1.21 per match. Their rivals from Avellaneda are able to score one and a half times more goals than they concede—1.64 versus 1.07.
