River Plate doesn’t show good results in domestic league. The team have 10 points after 10 matches with negative goal difference 16-17. They failed to win any of their last 5 matches. On the other hand, the team is doing great in Copa Libertadores: today’s visitors have a lead with 8 points after 4 matches and 12-2 goal difference. River Plate had 6 away matches in 2016, winning 1, tying 2 and losing 3 of them.
The reverse leg ended with 1-1 draw in Argentine. Considering disappointing record of River Plate in away matches this season and impressive results of today’s hosts at own pitch we can expect Sao Paulo to record important victory in this match.
Prediction for the match: Sao Paulo to win.
