On July 6, Estadio Monumental (Buenos Aires) will host the match of the 23rd round of the Liga Profesional, in which River Plate will compete with Colon. The battle will start at 02:30 CET.

River Plate

The club is a grandee, but not particularly successful if we take into account the recent years of the national Primera. The victories in the Copa Libertadores in 2015 and 2018 were accompanied by the absence of possibility to become a champion for 6 years in a row. And only 2021 brought the coveted title. It was followed by a roll back to the 3rd place – there is no surprise that the mentor had been replaced before the new cycle. The fact that the grandee trusted Demichelis, who is the beginner as a coach, surprised. Still, Martin does a great job. There were only some troubles in the Copa Libertadores, but even there the Argentine team won in both previous rounds. Speaking about the Primera, “the Millonarios” came off a dozen points from all the pursuers. Perhaps that was too relaxing. After all, Barracas Central suddenly lost in the previous match.

Colon

The team only occasionally demonstrated “something” at a serious level. Still, there were some good results, albeit with reservations, in recent years. The Argentine team reached the final of the Copa Sudamericana in 2019, and it managed to take the first great title, the Diego Maradona Trophy, in the last but one year. Speaking about the traditional Primera, the successes were much more modest and the club took the 25th place out of 28 participants a year ago. Nowadays, “Los Sabaleros” did not often lose, but they rarely won – the majority of the battles are resulted in a draw. By the way, the previous round, which is characterized by the confrontation with Racing Avellaneda, was played only on Sunday evening, so, there was a minimum of time for recovery and preparation.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Speaking about 2021-2022, the opponents strictly exchanged victories in 4 previous matches.

Predictions

Bookmakers have no doubt that River Plate will win; the question is only how big the advantage will be. Taking into account a misfire in the previous round, we are waiting for maximum dedication and, as a result, a victory with “a -1.5 goal handicap” (odd: 2.03).
