Estudiantes La Plata will be out to improve on their false start to the Liga Profesional Clausura when hosting Defensa y Justicia. Another tight encounter between the two is expected as they clash on Sunday. Five of their last six meetings were settled by one goal, and this prediction will back under 2.5 goals.
A losing start to the Clausura served another blow to Estudiantes, who were knocked out early in the Apertura playoffs. They fell 2-0 at home against Independiente last week and will hope playing a fourth straight home game offers a lift.
With that result also, the hosts failed to score for the third time in five matches and are winless in four of the last six.
Defensa were poor finishers to the Apertura, failing to win any of their closing five games and missing out on the playoffs. They have, however, started the Clausura well and hope to keep up after bagging four points from their opening two games.
Their 2-1 win over Deportivo Riestra in their latest outing was the first in eight matches, six of which ended in defeat in that stretch.
There won’t be much expected of the visitors here, especially as they are winless in their last two matches against Estudiantes. In the last four meetings with this host, Defensa managed just one goal.
