Platense vs Union Santa Fe
📖 The Preview
Platense are right on the edge here, sitting with zero points of cushion in the relegation battle, so this is basically a must-win at home. That kind of desperation tends to produce exactly what we're expecting: a tight, scrappy 1-0 where they nick it and defend for their lives. Union Santa Fe have been inconsistent lately and historically struggle against Platense, who lead the head-to-head convincingly. Don't expect goals flying in from either side, just one crucial moment deciding it for the home side.
