San Martin S.J.

Summary

River Plate have rarely tasted defeat this season. Since their Club World Cup appearance and the setback against Inter, the team has regained momentum and is now on a nine-match unbeaten run across three competitions the Copa Libertadores, the domestic cup, and the league.


Their opponents today, San Martín, are on a very different path. Away from home, they have struggled badly, going winless in their last 11 matches stretching back to the previous campaign. Even more concerning, they failed to score in eight of those games.

What we say

River Plate to Win


River Plate boast the best goal difference in the league, but recent form has seen them held to three draws in their last five matches. To reaffirm their position at the top, they will need a decisive win against a beatable opponent San Martín, a side they have defeated in their last three meetings, each time by a margin of two or three goals.
