Newell’s Old Boys have shown a tendency to draw, with half of their last six games ending level. Boca Juniors, on the other hand, have been unpredictable, making it hard to designate a clear favorite for their upcoming clash. Given both teams’ recent form, a close contest is anticipated, and another draw wouldn’t be a surprise. The key recommendation is to expect a tightly contested encounter with no clear edge for Boca Juniors.

Boca Juniors didn’t find stability under new head manager Rodolfo Arruabarrena, and I don’t think they can be trusted right now. I am predicting a draw on Sunday. 

Key Stats  


  • Newell’s have drawn 3 of their last 6 matches. 
  • Boca Juniors are winless in 6 of their last 9 matches. 

Boca Lead Head-to-Head 


Boca Juniors have a 33-17 advantage against Newell’s Old Boys in terms of victories, while 17 meetings ended without a winner. 

Hosts Have Mixed Results So Far 


Newell’s Old Boys had a disastrous run in the Liga Profesional Apertura, winning just three games out of 16 matches and finished just above the last place, but their results are looking better in Clausura. 

Their only appearance in May was a 1-1 road draw against Velez Sarsfield, while returning from the break with a 1-0 home victory against Talleres Cordoba. 

Unbeaten run ended mid-week, suffering a 1-0 road loss to favored Independiente, generating just 0.12 xG and firing one shot on target. 

Boca Searching for Form 


After a disappointing run in Apertura where they lost to Huracan in Round of 16, Boca Juniors appointed Rodolfo Arruabarrena as the new head manager in early July. 

Their only appearance in Clausura so far was a disastrous 3-0 road loss to Deportivo Riestra last weekend, ending this clash with 0.60-1.96 xG and 3-4 shots on target. 

Boca Juniors’ performances in the Copa Libertadores Round of 32 against O’Higgins were far from ideal, but advanced after a penalty shootout. They won the first tie at home 1-0, then lost with the same scoreline in Chile in mid-week. 

Team News


Defender Oscar Salomon and midfielder Rodrigo Herrera are unavailable for the home side due to injuries.

Boca Juniors have a lengthy injury list at the moment, Adam Bareiro, Agustín Marchesín, Carlos Palacios and Milton Gimenez unavailable.

Verdict

Newell’s Old Boys specialized in draws recently, three of their last six games ending level. Boca Juniors have been inconsistent, and I don’t view them as favorites here.
