Newell's Old Boys Vélez Sarsfield betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 24^th position of the league, with 14 points won, after 4 wins, 2 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Atlético Rafaela, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Arsenal, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 15 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got a home win against Rosario Central by (2‑1). In the last 8 away league matches Vélez Sarsfield has a record of 2 draws and 6 losses, so they have won 2 points out of 24 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 8 away matches. In their away league matches there are a few frequent results at half‑time: 2‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and 0‑0 (4 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 2 of the last 14 matches for the Primera División, they have reached half‑time in front in 1 of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 14 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Unlike his next opponent, Vélez Sárfield has presented poor performance in the Argentine Championship and is at the bottom of the table with 37% of the points played so far and they need to start scoring more regularly to get out of the uncomfortable situation they are in. The team scored 13 goals, being the ninth worst attack among the 30 national teams, and conceded 21 goals, having the third defense more leaked and these figures help to explain the current bad moment, since neither attack nor mainly the defense have been performing below expectations. Playing away from home, as the match that will do this Friday, the team has only 8% and averages of 0.25 goals scored and 1.50 goals suffered, which shows the great difficulty of scoring as a visitor, especially on account of the low income of their attack in this type of situation. In general, the team usually scores more in the second half as 11 of their 13 goals came in the second stage, especially in the 45-60 minutes with 6 goals.

Confirmed Lineup: Fabian Assmann, Maximiliano Caire, Lautaro Gianetti, Cristian Nasuti, Leandro Desábato, Diego Zabala, Nicolás Domínguez, Gonzalo Díaz, Juan Martinez, Mariano Pavone.
Coach: F. Cubero, G. Quinteros Desábato.
