On Wednesday Oct 19th, Huracán will host Platense at Estadio Tomás Adolfo Ducó in a clash of the Superliga. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 16 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. In their last match, 5th placed Huracán, recorded a 3-1 win against Estudiantes. Franco Cristaldo scored the first goal for Huracán in the 31st minute on a penalty, but Leandro Díaz got the equalizer for Estudiantes in the 44th minute on a penalty. Huracán should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while platense sits at 14th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-2 loss against River Plate. De La Cruz Arcosa struck first for River Plate in the 60th minute, then Suarez added another in the 64th minute. Platense looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 5 of their last 10.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season Platense won the head to head battle with 1 win.
Ramiro González and Vicente Taborda are the top scorers for Platense in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Huracán’s most prolific scorer has been Franco Cristaldo. The Argentinian midfielder has netted 2 goals over the last 5 matches.
