Newells Old Boys come into this one playing fairly steady football. They've only lost once in their last five games, picking up a win and three draws. They haven't been scoring many goals, but they've also been hard to beat. Lanus, on the other hand, have had a rougher stretch. They've lost three of their last five, including a couple of narrow one-goal defeats, though they did manage one big away win in that run.

When these two meet, the games have often been decided by a clear margin, with some high-scoring results in the past, including a five-goal match earlier this year. Based on the recent form and the way this matchup typically plays out, this looks like a tight game that Newells Old Boys are more likely to edge or at least avoid losing. A draw is also a very real possibility here.
