The rest of the five matches were played out as drawn encounters.
Key Highlights
Despite the stark difference historically between the two clubs, Boca Juniors, at the time of writing, are ranked below Godoy Cruz in the league standings. Godoy Cruz are perched upon the 10th position of the league table with 29 points to their name whereas the gigantic Boca Juniors are located one spot below them in the same standings, with one point less than them.
Injury Report
While Silvio and Gianluca Ferrari are the only absentees for Godoy Cruz in this game, Boca Juniors have a huge list of injured players in their ranks. This includes the likes of Miguel Merentiel, Martin Payero, Luca Langoni, Jorge Figal and Agustin Sandez. Former Manchester United centre back Marcos Rojo is also a part of this list.
Prediction
We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. Boca Juniors have done well historically against Godoy Cruz, but on recent form, the home team have an edge. Godoy Cruz come into this game on the back of being unbeaten thrice in their last five matches whereas Boca Juniors have won just two of their last five. This will be a close contest for sure.
