The Argentinean team hosts the Bamfet Army in an exciting match on Tuesday. Both sides have been struggling lately, with the Argentinean side having won only one of their last seven matches, while the Bamfids have also won only one of their six matches. Both sides have a common weakness in their forward line, averaging less than a goal a game in the league this season. The Navy Mariners have not panicked in the face of such a situation, relying on their 2.5 goal strategy to play a solid game.
The Argentinos Jr. have suffered defeats against weaker teams, which has taken a heavy toll on the team's morale, but their performance at home has been quite solid. In their last 7 league matches, they only conceded one goal at home, which makes them less likely to be overturned by their opponents. In the face of adversity, the little Argentinians are expected to play a solid defense in this match and try to take one or two chances, even if the game is deadlocked.
Since Banfet's Uruguayan coach Melua took over, the team's playing style has been based on defense. Since Melua's arrival, Banfet has never attempted to outscore their opponents by more than one goal in a match, and their goal-scoring ability has been almost nil. In their last seven games, the teams have scored a total of only six goals, and neither team has scored more than two goals. Given that both teams excel in defense, a 2.5 goal handicap seems like a tempting target.
