Liga Profesional title hopefuls Estudiantes and Independiente meet this weekend at Jorge Luis Hirschi Stadium. Hosts Estudiantes finished top of Zone A in the Apertura campaign, while Independiente were fifth. The prediction here will lean towards Estudiantes, who have won six times in 10 at home to Independiente.
Estudiantes recorded the best record in the Apertura in Zone A. They won nine of 16 matches, and with a further four games ending in a draw, they accumulated 31 points.
This was the third best record in both zones combined, leaving them three points behind in the title race. The Lions haven’t played a match since the final week of May.
They defeated Rosario 3-0 to continue in the Copa in their last match before the World Cup break.
Independiente haven’t lost in three meetings with Estudiantes. Their sole win in this period came the last time they were away in La Plata. The Reds will be hoping to extend this unbeaten streak with a win and strengthen their chances for the title.
Independiente currently sit in 11th spot in the combined league standings. With 24 points garnered from an inconsistent record of six wins and six draws, the visitors find themselves outside of the continental places.
Gustavo Quinteros’ men also haven’t played since the last week of May. They went into the break with a 2-0 victory away to Union de Santa Fe in the Copa.

Our Estudiantes de La Plata vs Independiente Prediction
Our prediction for Estudiantes v Independiente is that Estudiantes wins. Estudiantes were among the top-performing teams during the Apertura campaign and finished with the best record in Zone A. Key to their success was their defensive solidity, which saw them concede the fewest number of goals.
As they have home advantage for this clash, Estudiantes are in a strong position to come out on top. They haven’t had quite the best of times in recent meetings with Independiente, but now are up against an inconsistent team. The visitors also have struggled with the defensive part of their game, and have conceded the most goals of the title hopefuls.
