[Football- Argentina 'Copa de la Liga'] 9.2/ 23:00 Union- Newells Old Boys
Back to the league where I’ve had a much better time getting a read on the teams. In this match perfect Newells Old Boys will be visiting minnows Union to start the fourth match day in the Argentine league.
In their first 3 games Newells have earned all possible points, led by star new arrival Ever Banega, who has been putting in man of the match performances. Though old, Banega is still a class above the rest of the league- he has the technique, vision and creativity to turn attacks into goals, especially against weak defenders. His continued high performance will be key if they are to beat Union. Newells’ run has been away to Central Cordoba, away to Lanus, and home against Belgrano, winnning 1-0, 2-0, and 1-0.
Union have started the season in ok fashion. They beat Racing away, then lost at home to Estudiantes, and then drew against San Lorenzo, 1-0, 0-1 and 0-0. Four points in 3 games is actually overachieving for them, compared to previous seasons’ performances which currently have them 24th out of 28 on the relegation table- Union are a team that fight to avoid relegation every season. They’re a solid defensive outfit but that’s about all they have going for them.
Since Union’s 13th minute goal against Racing, they have now gone 257 minutes (2.85 games) without scoring a single goal. Add to this that Newells have kept clean sheets in all of their games, and it becomes clear that Union are not going to have an easy time scoring. Newells will likely only have to get one goal to win this one, something which they’ve managed to do in every game so far.
