Preview
Vélez and River Plate meet at Estadio José Amalfitani, in a match for this stage of the CONMEBOL Libertadores (Round of 16). In 3 head‑to‑heads in the last 3 years, the away team won 2 and lost 1. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 14‑08‑2021, and ended in a (2‑0) win by River Plate. Vélez registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis Vélez

The home team comes to this stage of the CONMEBOL Libertadores (Round of 16) after having finished the group stage in the 2nd position of Group C, with 8 points won. This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away draw against Defensa y Justicia by (1‑1). Vélez has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 5 of the last 6 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 6 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times, but have turned the score around in 2.

Velez Sarsfield are aware that simply playing at home does not give them favouritism. In fact, it is essential that they maintain a solid stance and play quality football in the next two games. As the first match will be at home, they have a duty to impose themselves to nullify River Plate, despite being aware that they need to have a lead going into the final match. To overcome their opponents, it is imperative that they have quality in all areas and make no mistakes.

Confirmed Lineup: Diego Valentín Gómez, Lucas Hoyos, Matías de los Santos, Leonardo Jara, Lucas Orellano, N. Garayalde, Francisco Ortega, Maximo Perrone, Lucas Pratto, Walter Bou, Lucas Janson.
Coach: M. Bravo.

Analysis River Plate

This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 26 goals scored and 11 conceded; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 41 goals scored and 15 conceded. In their last match, for the Liga Profesional Argentina, they got a home win against Lanús by (2‑1). Their last away match was for the Liga Profesional Argentina and ended in a win by (1‑5) against Unión Santa Fe. In the last 10 away matches River Plate has won 6, tied 2 and lost 2. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 6 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 12 of their 34 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

River Plate are always favourites in the competitions in which they participate and it is no different in the Copa Libertadores. They know they will not have it easy if they want to win the title, but they are capable of beating any opponent. Against Velez Sarsfield they are favourites to win, but that doesn't change the fact that they will have a tough time. The fact that they have the opportunity to decide their fate in their own stadium is important and they must take advantage of it. That's why it's important to at least draw, but they have the quality to win.

Confirmed Lineup: Franco Armani, Paulo Díaz, Milton Casco, Emanuel Mammana, Héctor Martínez, José Paradela, Enzo Fernández, Ezequiel Barco, Enzo Pérez, Julián Álvarez, Braian Romero.
Coach: M. Gallardo.
