155%(2.23)
X30%(2.90)
215%(3.50)

Deportivo Riestra appears to have the edge in this match, despite both teams being in poor form. The hosts boast significantly better offensive metrics in home games, with an average of 12 shots per match and a higher xG (1.4 vs 0.87). Newell's Old Boys have a disastrous away form with a 100% loss rate, conceding an average of 2 goals per game and without keeping a single clean sheet. A key factor is also the hosts' advantage in possession (54% vs 34%), which could translate into control of the match. Considering the superior xG statistics and the visitors' terrible away form, Deportivo Riestra has a realistic chance to break through and secure their first home win of the season.
