The Argentine Primera Division underdogs Aldosivi will continue to hunt their first point in the new campaign this weekend when they welcome Platense to Estadio José María Minella in the third round of the campaign. Kickoffs schedules for June 22, 2022 at 01:00 EAT.
The hosts have lost each of their opening three games to find themselves at the bottom of the standings without a point. Aldosivi, who are the only side yet to pick up a point in the Primera Division, head into Tuesday on a run of five consecutive defeats across all competitions, stretching back to their Copa Argentina victory over Colegiales in May.
Aldosivi gets into this fixture aiming for better results following 1-0 Superliga losing efforts to Patronato in their last game. In that match, Aldosivi managed 62% possession and seven shots with two of them on target. Patronato got 12 shots with two of them on target and a goal by Facundo Cobos (23′).
On the other hand, Platense occupies the third place in the Primera Division with seven points to their name after the first three matches. However they have had a positive start, defensive issues still need to be ironed out; the away side has conceded in fourteen of their last fifteen games and in order for their start to remain positive, they need to find a way to keep clean sheets.
Int their previous game, Platense held each other to 1-1 Superliga tie with Gimna ‘ Plata. In that match, Platense had 50% possession, nine shots with four of them on target and a goal scored by Juan Cruz Esquivel (88’). Gimna ‘ Plata got 15 shots with five of them on target and a goal by Lautaro Chávez (83’).
