Barracas Central take on the visitors River Plate in the round 22 match of Argentinian Liga Professional. The match will be played on Saturday, June 1st at Claudio Fabian Tapia (Barracas)
Barracas are an inconspicuous mid-table team in the Argentine championship that tries to cling to draws at the very least, but even that doesn't always work out. As for the upcoming match, it will naturally be extremely difficult for the hosts since they will be facing the league leaders who consistently rack up victories. Barracas is unlikely to deviate from their traditions, and the team will try to stifle this match, but their chances are slim. The head-to-head history speaks volumes, as they have played each other twice, both matches from last year, in which River Plate won 2-0 and 3-0. River Plate's current form makes it extremely difficult for opponents to find a way to defeat them and snatch points. Thus, the hosts' outlook for this match is quite bleak.

River Plate have confidently taken the lead in the championship and already has a +10 point advantage over their closest pursuer. Moreover, the team's results are only getting better and better. While they occasionally suffered defeats earlier in the season, they are currently riding a wave of victories with confidence. The upcoming match for River Plate should unfold quite easily and routinely since the opponent is quite ordinary. In the previous round, River Plate convincingly defeated Barracas' table neighbor, Instituto, with a score of 3-1. Thus, there is no need to come up with anything special for this meeting, and it's reasonable to focus on the victory of the clear favorite in this match.
Indeed, Barracas will try to steer this match towards a peaceful outcome and thus secure at least one point in the battle against the leader. However, River Plate is currently in good form, and it can be presumed that the guests will showcase their customary quality attacking play, overwhelming the hosts. My bet for this match is a victory for River Plate. There's no need to complicate things here.
Prediction for the match: River Plate to win.
