THE PREDICTION

Under the management of Marcelo Gallardo, River Plate come into this on the back of a slender 1-0 win away at Newell’s Old Boys in their most recent outing, at the weekend. The home team have now won nine of their last ten matches with their one defeat coming away at The Strongest in the opening match of their Copa Libertadores group stage campaign. They now face a Sporting Cristal side that shared a 1-1 draw with Boys in their most recent outing, at the weekend. They were beaten 3-1 by Fluminense in the opening match of this competition. River should win this one quite comfortably, especially in Buenos Aires.
