River Plate - Godoy Cruz Match Preview

In this match of Argentinian Liga Profesional, River Plate will play at home stadium against Godoy Cruz. River Plate want a win in this match but it will not be an easy task for them.

River Plate were knocked out of Copa Libertadores. They were unable to beat Velez in two matches, without scoring a single goal. The start of the new season is very bad for them, they are also struggling in the domestic league. In 6 matches played in the league they have won in two, drew in two and lost in two matches. Their best player Julian Alvarez has returned to Manchester City.

Godoy Cruz are playing great defence at the start. In last five league matches they have conceded only 3 goals. This team is tactically prepared and has a defensive-minded approach, playing with only one striker. For this match their manager Favio Orsi will start with five players in defence. They target mainly not to concede than to score.

River Plate players are still disappointed with their Copa Libertadores campaign failure. Also they habe to continue without their best player Alvarez. Godoy Cruz is a solid defensive side and I do not expect many goals in this one.
