Our model expects a Boca Juniors win
Our forecasting model expects a Boca Juniors win with medium confidence. That assessment is supported by Boca Juniors taking 10 points from 12 at home in this competition alongside Union Santa Fe losing three of their five away games. However, three straight 1-1 draws in head-to-head meetings show that Union Santa Fe routinely restrict Boca Juniors' attack.
