With the morning sun dawning, the Argentinos Jr. will play a match against the Defenders in their own stadium in the A-League on Saturday. Under Miletto's leadership, Little Argentinians' league results have been unimpressive in the last two seasons, and this season they have shifted their focus to the Copa Libertadores. The underdog is a good bet as they are likely to meet their Waterloo again against the "nemesis" of the Defenders. (The match will be broadcast live on myTV SUPER at 8:30am on Saturday.)
The Argentinos are currently 9th in the league, 4 points behind their rivals, the Defenders. However, their performance in the Copa Libertadores has been outstanding, topping the group stage with all 5 wins. Next midweek, they will also face Diwali Independiente on the road to compete for the top seeding in the group, so perhaps they will have some reservations in this match. In fact, the Argentinians have only won one of their last four league matches before the Copa Libertadores, so it's clear that their minds are not on the A-League.
Defenders' last round of away challenge to the top of the table River Plate team lost, but the performance is not bad. Moreover, they have been in good form recently, with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in their last 5 matches. What's more, the defenders are quite good against the little Argentineans in recent years, winning all of their last 4 meetings. In this match, the defenders are favored by half a goal, and the underdog is obviously worth considering.
