River Plate has been excellent this season, competing strongly on two fronts domestically and in the Copa Libertadores. They've maintained a high level of performance in both competitions.

In the league, their home form has been impressive, with just one loss at home (0-2 against Estudiantes early in the season). Aside from that, they’ve recorded 6 wins from 9 home matches. One concern, however, could be the 7 goals they’ve conceded at home a bit high for their standards.

Barracas Central has had a decent campaign overall, advancing from a different group than River Plate. Their away matches tend to be low-scoring affairs, reflecting their compact and defensive approach. In 8 away games, they’ve scored 7 and conceded 8, securing only 2 wins.

The last time Barracas visited River Plate, they suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat, and history could repeat itself if River maintains their current form.
