Prediction

Racing Club have a couple of key injuries ahead of this one but the draw against league leaders Huracan showed that the side are well in with a chance of a title charge.
With Sudamericana action soon to return, Racing will want to take advantage of their free midweeks of late to put together a consistent run domestically.
With Noberto Briasco reportedly close to a move to Gimnasia from Boca Juniors it offers the current attacking line a chance to show why they deserve to retain their place following four straight defeats.
Marcelo Mendez is under plenty of pressure to arrest the current slide of his Gimnasia side, but with Racing Club up next the fixture list looks increasingly daunting.
