In the current campaign, River Plate and Talleres Córdoba have rarely played high-scoring matches. Their meeting last week was a prime example, with the two Argentine giants struggling to create chances in front of the opponent's goal.
Since the end of July, River Plate has had a series of five matches ending with total under 2.5. In Córdoba, River Plate might not have deserved the win, but they benefited from their opponent's issues. The team clinched the victory late with just three shots on target. Over the weekend, they once again looked poor in attack, with only two shots on target against Gimnasia (1:1).
Talleres possibly missed their best chance to progress past River Plate in the home game. In the first half, the Córdoba side lost winger Silvio Martinez to injury, and in the final stages, defender Lucas Suárez received a red card. To cover his absence, the team will likely adopt a more defensive formation. Before their victory over Independiente on Sunday (2:1), Talleres had a series of five matches with total under 2.5.
In Buenos Aires, River Plate and Talleres Córdoba are expected to play cautiously again, avoiding risks in the opposition half. The teams are unlikely to score more than two goals between them.
