Boca Juniors vs Argentinos Juniors Prediction 7 October 2024
Added on 06 October, 2024
The highly anticipated derby between Boca Juniors and Argentinos Juniors is set to headline the 17th round of the Argentine Primera División. However, both teams are struggling in their respective campaigns this season, making this clash less glamorous than in previous years!
Boca Juniors, currently sitting in 13th place with 21 points and a goal difference of 19:17, are not having their best season. After relatively decent results, including a 1:1 draw with Estudiantes and a 1:2 loss to Rosario Central, the Blue and Gold have suffered three consecutive defeats—1:2 against Racing, 0:1 in the Superclásico against River Plate, and 0:2 to Belgrano.
Argentinos Juniors, meanwhile, have had inconsistent performances, drawing 0:0 with Huracán, losing 0:1 to Gimnasia La Plata, defeating Newell's Old Boys 3:0, and then playing out two goalless draws against Independiente and Atletico Tucumán. This has left them in 19th place with 19 points and a goals-to-miss ratio of 11:16.
Both teams are currently mid-table and not in the best form, which could lead to a less thrilling encounter. Based on recent performances, it's possible this match could follow the trend of low-scoring or unspectacular games.
