Boca Juniors have another chance to address their poor start to the Clausura when they face off with Estudiantes La Plata. This game on Thursday will be hosted by Boca, who are 13th with one point, trailing ninth-placed Estudiantes by two. When Boca host this match, there’s mostly a chance it would end in low scores, and that marks our prediction here.

When Boca Juniors last played at home, they posted a 1-0 win against O’Higgins in the Copa Sudamericana. They will look to build on that as they seek to rise from a three-match winless run.

Two of those were in their opening Clausura engagements. They started off with a 3-0 defeat at Deportivo Riestra before drawing 2-2 at Newell’s Old Boys.

Estudiantes’ continental race ended in May, and as such, they’ve played fewer matches than Boca Juniors in recent weeks. That has afforded them a little bit more rest time, and they are in with a chance at two straight wins.

Pincharratas also started the Clausura on a losing note, falling 2-0 away to Independiente. They, however, recovered to win 3-0 at home against Defensa y Justicia.

That was their third clean sheet in four matches, winning all three. They also won their latest outing against Boca Juniors, 2-1, and will be targeting a first back-to-back victory over them since 2014.

Our Boca Juniors vs Estudiantes de La Plata Prediction

Three wins in their last four matches will power Estudiantes’ belief that they can win a second straight match against Boca Juniors. However, the hosts will feel this is a route back to winning ways, having only lost once in the last five meetings with Estudiantes.

An outstanding statistic from this fixture is its low-scoring nature, which we can also expect here. Six of these teams’ last 10 meetings had fewer than three goals scored. With the clean sheets recorded in the teams’ recent matches, our prediction for Boca Juniors v Estudiantes La Plata is for less than 2.5 goals.
