Estudiantes vs Banfield Prediction: A Chance for Banfield of Making it to the Top 10 Standings

In the upcoming fixture of the Argentine Primera Division, we have Estudiantes taking on Banfield in an exciting encounter. With Banfield at the 14th spot in the standings, we expect them to make some advancements and move up the standings table. Estudiantes who seem to struggle at the moment is likely to grab a win at home and get themselves the three important win points. With the game being played at the home of Estudiantes, we expect a buzzing stadium in support of their home side. Both teams have shared the ground 14 times, from which Estudiantes has won 4 and Banfield has been victorious in 5 games. When the last time these two sides played in August 2021, the game ended as a draw (1-1).

Going in the game, Estudiantes aren’t looking much settled as they were defeated in their last game against Boca Juniors (3-1). Now they will be up against Banfield after a gap of four days, feeling all refreshed and active for the home appearance. Estudiantes has a goal-scoring average of 1.3 goals per game and is likely to score at least one or two goals in the game against Banfield. However, their goal conceding average is 1.6 goals per game, which can be minimized a little. Jorge Morel and Luciano Lollo will look to take the attack to the visitors.

Banfield is coming off a draw against Argentinos’ Juniors (1-1) which was quite an exciting game to witness. Though Emanuel Coronel secured the lead in the 39th minute, Banfield’s defenders weren’t able to build on the momentum and stop Juniors from scoring. Banfield will look to cover up their loopholes and focus on winning. Going in the game, they are averaging about 1.2 goals per game, which is slightly on the below-par side and needs to be increased upto 1.6 goals per game. They look to play attack as they have an average of 4.2 shots on target.
