Newell's Old Boys welcome Velez Sarsfield on Sunday, Sep 13 at 10:00 PM in a Liga Profesional – Clausura fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Newell's Old Boys come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Velez Sarsfield, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
Despite playing at home, Newell's Old Boys face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Velez Sarsfield have won 7 of 10 encounters. Their last encounter ended in Newell's Old Boys won 0–1.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Newell's Old Boys a slight edge, but Velez Sarsfield are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
