Mendoza's Estadio Bautista Gargantini is no place for a wounded giant. Racing arrive here having lost three of their last five across all competitions, conceding seven goals in those five outings, and their away defensive record is a genuine problem right now.
The h2h tells the real story: two meetings, two draws, zero goals conceded by Rivadavia on home turf in this fixture. Rivadavia kept three clean sheets in their last five and scored in only 2 of those 5 games - this is a low-block, hard-to-beat outfit. Racing scored in 4 of their last 5 but conceded in 4 as well. Both teams have injury concerns with Macagno out for the hosts and Carboni and Forneris missing for Racing.
The draw at 3.00 fits the pattern perfectly. Two straight stalemates between these sides, a compact home team and a Racing squad short on confidence. I'll take that price all day.
