Huracan vs Argentinos Jrs
Huracan continue to deflate their performances game after game in the league. Last Wednesday, the team showed a poor version and succumbed to a 2-0 away defeat at newcomers Belgrano, which represented their seventh consecutive game without a win in this competition, drawing two and losing five in a row. Following that run, El Globo dropped down to the 20th spot of the Liga Profesional table on 12 points, only five above bottom-placed Union Santa Fe.
Argentinos Juniors played their best match of the season last Tuesday and secured a massive 5-1 home success over bottom-placed Union Santa Fe, with striker Gabriel Avalos netting a hat-trick. El Bicho are performing a worthy campaign in the Liga Profesional, accumulating 17 points in 11 rounds after losing only once across their last six league games (winning three and drawing two in that spell). On a sorry note, El Bicho managed only four points in six away matches in this competition, with one win, one stalemate and four losses so far.
Huracan has been conceding freely lately, Argentinos comes from scoring 5 midweek, so I expect to see at least a couple of goals here.
