Rosario Central vs Racing Club
📖 The Preview
Rosario Central look good for this one at home. Their recent form tells the story — they've won four of their last six and, crucially, they've got the home advantage in a fixture where the head-to-head record is pretty even. Racing have been solid enough, stringing together a few wins recently, so they'll cause problems and likely nick a goal — hence the 2-1 rather than a comfortable home win. But Central should have just enough to edge it on their own patch, with both sides finding the net in what should be an open, competitive derby.
