Newell’s Old Boys vs Racing Club Match Preview

Racing Club make the trip to Rosario with defensive confidence high and momentum on their side, looking to extend a strong unbeaten league run against a Newell’s Old Boys team that has struggled for consistency at home. The hosts recently ended a poor stretch with victory over Huracán, yet remain fragile when playing in front of their own fans. With Racing’s defensive stability and the head-to-head history clearly in their favour, this Argentina Liga Profesional clash is likely to hinge on control, structure and patience rather than open attacking play.

Newell’s Old Boys’ Home Struggles Continue

Newell’s Old Boys have found it difficult to build momentum in Rosario, going four home matches without a win. The 0-1 defeat to Unión Santa Fe followed by consecutive 1-1 draws against Tigre and Estudiantes highlighted their inability to turn possession into meaningful chances. Even when they dominate territory, the final-third precision has been missing, and their recent heavy losses including the 5-0 defeat at Boca Juniors. exposed their defensive vulnerability when chasing games.

The recent 2-0 win at Huracán offered brief respite but did little to mask deeper structural issues. Their last home win came back in mid-September, and since then, defensive lapses have repeatedly cost them points. With Racing one of the league’s most compact sides, Newell’s will again need to rely on moments of individual quality rather than sustained attacking rhythm.

Racing Club’s Defensive Base Driving Results

Racing Club approach this fixture in solid form, unbeaten in their last four domestic outings and keeping clean sheets in all of them. Their 1-0 victory over Defensa y Justicia and goalless draw at Central Córdoba reflected the composure that has defined their recent performances. Away from home, Racing have shown exceptional discipline, winning three of their last five and conceding just one goal during that period.

Their structure without the ball has been the main strength. They allow very few clear chances and transition quickly when regaining possession. Recent 1-0 wins over Aldosivi and Vélez Sarsfield showed their ability to control tempo once ahead, an approach that suits matches like this where patience often brings the reward. Against a Newell’s attack that rarely stretches defences, Racing’s balance between compactness and control could again be decisive.

Newell’s Old Boys vs Racing Club Prediction

The tactical data and form patterns both point towards another low-scoring affair, shaped by Racing’s defensive strength and Newell’s lack of cutting edge at home. The visitors have kept four consecutive clean sheets in league play, while the hosts have failed to score in three of their last five.

At 2.15 odds, a Racing Club win fits both recent and historical trends, with Racing victorious in four of the last five head-to-head meetings, including two clean-sheet wins in Rosario. In the same line, both teams to score – no at 1.80 odds holds strong value, as neither side has shown consistency in front of goal and five of their last six meetings have seen only one team score.
