Huracan vs Independiente

Huracan don’t give up on their fight for the title. Last Tuesday, coach Frank Kudelka rotated many of his starters, but the team were still able to beat Newell’s Old Boys 4-2 away following an enjoyable performance. El Globo made it seven league matches unbeaten (four victories and three draws) to accumulate 39 points, three points behind Liga Profesional leaders Velez Sarsfield. In addition, they remain into the Copa Sudamericana zone in the aggregate table.

Independiente played enjoyable football last Tuesday and were able to secure an easy 3-0 home success over Union Santa Fe in a six-pointer regarding the continental tickets. El Rojo made it 13 league games unbeaten, winning five and drawing eight in that spell to accumulate 30 points in the Liga Profesional, which is enough to stay into one of the Copa Sudamericana spots in the aggregate table. Independiente remain without defeat in their last six on away turf (two victories and four stalemates).

Huracan are now in 2nd place and fighting for the title but they will have a very tough rival here in this Independiente who are in great form and coming from a very solid win against a tough rival like Union. I think Huracan are overachieving now with a mediocre squad and they should struggle here.
