Racing Club finished 5th in the Argentina Torneo Inicial last season – they scored 26 goals in 19 games and conceded just 12 Godoy Cruz finished 14th scoring just 13 goals in 19 games and conceding 24. Racing Club have had a shocking season losing 10 of their 18 games so far. Godoy Cruz still have trouble scoring but they have improved their defensive record which has enabled them to sit mid-table for much of the season. From a betting perspective, it’s very difficult to fancy Racing Club based on this seasons form – they have scored just 10 goals in 18 games and conceded 24. Godoy Cruz have scored just 17 in 18 and this game could very well be 0:0 however Godoy may just edge it given how bad Racing Club have played this season compared to last campaign.
