Facundo Sanchez’s strike just 12 minutes from time allowed Estudiantes to rescue a point after a 3-3 draw on their visit to Velez Sarsfield after holding a 2-0 lead at one point. They will host this Monday’s game at Quilmes, where they also played against Brazil’s Santos in the Copa Libertadores on Thursday, losing 0-1 in a game they should have won because they created a lot more chances than their rival.
Chacarita Juniors are running out of chances to stay in the Superliga following their 2-2 home draw with Sarandi Arsenal last Sunday. The team were close to claiming a key victory but they eventually wasted a 2-0 lead. As a result, they remain bottom in the relegation table, having accumulated just 15 points and seven matches without a victory. To make matters worse, Chacarita are the worst away side in the league, with just three points in 11 travels.
They can’t be mathematically relegated this week but it’s only a matter of time as only winning at least 5 of the remaining 6 games could give them a chance, and that definitely won’t happen.
Estudiantes should have enough to claim three points against the worst team in the league.
