4 years ago 650

Barracas Central will be taking on Patronato in the round 10 of the 2022 Argentine Primera Division campaign at the Estadio Islas Malvinas on Wednesday.

The hosts will be looking to avoid a fourth defeat in a row, while the visitors are seeking a third victory on the bounce.

Barracas Central suffered a second consecutive league defeat in a 3-1 loss to Estudiantes when the sides met at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi on Thursday.

They trailed to a Leandro Diaz opener but managed to restore parity before halftime through Ivan Tapia, but the eventually fell behind through second-half goals from Benjamin Rollheiser and Pablo Piatti.

Having picked up nine points so far this season, Barracas Central are currently sitting 22nd in the league standings, three points behind a top-half spot.

Currently with the worst defensive record on home turf, they will need to keep it tight at the back if they are to avoid a fifth defeat in their last six home matches.

Meanwhile, Patronato saw off the threat of Tigre in a narrow 1-0 victory at the Estadio Presbitero Bartlome Grella in Parana on Wednesday.

Off the back of a dull opening 45 minutes, Francisco Alvarez broke the deadlock in the early stages of the second period to hand the hosts all three points.

Facundo Sava’s side now sit 11th in the league standings and will be keen to continue their surge up the standings by continuing their good run of results.

Next up is the first-ever encounter with an opposing side who recently earned promotion to the top flight after a lengthy absence.

Having recently picked up their first away victory in the Primera Division since May, Sava’s side will be looking to record consecutive wins away from home for the first time in over a year.

Barracas Central news

Barracas Central’s Nicolas Ferreyra missed out in the defeat to Estudiantes last time out, and the defender is a huge doubt for this contest.

The hosts will also take to the pitch without the services of Argentine duo of Daniel Martinez and Facundo Castro, who are unavailable through thigh and ankle injuries respectively.

Patronato news

Patronato will make do without the services of 28-year-old Fabio Vazquez as he is yet to feature this season due to a long-term knee problem.

Midefielder Matias Padro is also facing an extended spell on the sidelines due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury which he suffered back in December.

Prediction and Odds

Patronato are in a relatively good form heading into the contest, and they will back themselves to get the job done against a below-par Barracas Central side.

The visitors will aim to take advantage of the visitors who recently got promoted to the top flight, and we feel they will secure the victory on Wednesday.
