But Central Córdoba balanced the match and equalized in the first half’s injury time, in the 45+3rd minute, when Atencio scored off Rak’s assist. Newell's had more possession (53% to 47%), more territorial dominance and yet they couldn't turn that into more goals in the first half. It was even more eventful in the second half.

Central Córdoba, under increasing pressure, had the ball in the back of the net in the 74th to turn the score around and seal the three points before Cabral put the ball away with a quick move to make it 3-2 in the 86th to take the points for the visitors. Newell's fought until the end but couldn't avoid defeat.

Estudiantes and Rosario Central played a 1-1 draw in a balanced and intense match. Estudiantes had more possession (48 per cent) and more chances in the first half, registering six attempts on goal to Rosario's four. Jorge Sosa netted the home side opener in the 30th minute, with Manyoma providing the supply. But Rosario replied before halftime, before Campaz leveled in the 44th with a pass from Copetti. Rosario's attacking efficiency meant that Estudiantes' slight statistical dominance wasn't enough to get them ahead at half time. Estudiantes feature in possession in the second half, reaching 62 percent, and ratchet up the pressure with four attempts on goal and two shots on target. But Rosario's defence was solid and thwarted the home team's attacks. In this period Rosario had tried to exploit counter attacks but he couldn't convert with only one attempt on goal. There were many fouls in this game and it was a physical one, but then came a lot of substitutions in the second half. The game ended with Estudiantes 55 percent of the possession, more goal attempts (10 to 10) and shots on target (5 to 2) but without being able to convert that superiority into more goals. The draw was the product of a match of such intensity and balance in which Estudiantes dominated both possession and creation, but Rosario provided great defensive resilience. With this result, Rosario is in 22th place in the table with 26 points. In the last 5 league games, the team has recorded 3 draws and 2 losses, with a record of 24 goals scored and 23 goals conceded.

In the last 5 games between these 2 teams, Central Cordoba has won 1, Rosario has won 3, and they drew another. Goals were scored in all of those games, but both teams scoring in just 2 of the matches.

Central Cordoba plays at home and are in a better momentum, so I think that they will win this game.
