Independiente vs Banfield Prediction & Betting Tips (13 June)

The Red Devils of Atlético Independiente are off to a bad start to their championship campaign having not won a single one of their first four days for a record of a defeat during J1 against Talleres Corodoba 1-3 and three successive draws against Platense 0-0, Velez Sarsfield 1-1 and on the last day at Defensa y Justicia 0-0. Fortunately, we have qualified for the round of 16 of the Argentine Cup obtained against Juventud U.U 0-2 on neutral ground.

Banfield cannot really laugh at the situation of his opponent of the night since he is in the same precariousness with only one point more. However, the only difference between the two clubs is that the visitors managed to bring home a victory as recently as on the last day against Newells Old Boys 2-0 after suffering two defeats without scoring a goal against Union Santa Fe 1-0 and against Gimnasia LP 3-0 without forgetting a share of points against Hurucan 1-1.

Injured, midfielder Marcone (22 appearances last season) will be OUT tonight like Matias Gimenez (4 goals, 2 assists last season in the league). Impressive with the Argentinos Juniors club last season, Avalos (12 pawns, 2 assists) and will try to reproduce the same campaign (1.2 million euros for his transfer) and has also found the string once this season. On the Banfield side, Juan Bisanz (6 goals last season), midfielder Cabrera (22 appearances last season) and Maldonado (not a match in three years) will all be absent for this trip but their teammates have become accustomed to playing without them since they haven't played since J1.

Same case concerning the very interesting one during the League Cup, Rivera (3 goals). Author of 3 goals already this season and a victorious double against Newell Old Boys, Milton Gimenez (5 pawns, 2 assists last year) will likely be there.
