Huracán vs Argentinos Juniors: Team News and Expert Analysis
The capital club collected 47 points last season, ultimately finishing twelfth in the final table based on additional criteria. This season, their results at the start have been fairly balanced between wins, draws, and losses. For example, after defeating Rosario Central, they then shared points with Tigre.
The team from "Estadio Diego Armando Maradona" finished in the top three in the previous Primera. As a result, they qualified for the Copa Libertadores, but after exchanging 1-0 wins with Barcelona Guayaquil, they lost on penalties in the qualifiers. Moreover, they were immediately eliminated from the cup by modest Ferrocarril Midland, also after a penalty shootout. Nevertheless, things are going well for them in the Primera, especially this spring. Their only slip was against Independiente Rivadavia, but they also managed to beat Atlético Tucumán.
Viveros and company play pragmatically: while scoring 1.14 goals per game, they concede just 0.79. Their neighbors average 1.07 goals scored and only 0.71 conceded.
