With their recent results in Copa Libertadores and the Argentine Primera, no one is hotter than Velez Sarsfield. They’ve scored nine goals while allowing none in their last three games in all competitions, they’re into the quarterfinals of Copa Libertadores, and they’re on top of the Primera table with one game in hand. Tonight, they’re the favorites, but they face a formidable challenge in Banfield.
Velez Sarsfield Vs. Banfield, Argentine Primera: Preview
Banfield are sitting smack dab in the middle of the table in Argentina, but they might be up with the title contenders if it wasn’t for a bizarre match last weekend, in which they lost 4-3 to third-bottom Quilmes. Before that match, their defense was one of the best in the country. It will be interesting to see which Banfield team shows up this evening.
With a big Copa Libertadores game looming on Thursday, Velez could opt to be a bit conservative in this one. Maxi Moralez has been a bit overworked over the last two tournaments, and he could be rested tonight.
The match starts at 7:10 pm ET. Stay right here for updates on the match.
