In my opinion Estudiantes have really good chances to avoid loss in today’s match up.

Match on neutral location, but Estudiantes coming for this game with good mental advantage as played twice against Boca Juniors this year – 4 points recorded and not conceded even a single goal.

Boca Juniors is not in good form already for long time. Since end of September they played 12 matches in all competitions, but they recorded only 2 wins. 3 weeks ago they lost in Copa Libertadores final against Flamengo and for sure that was very painful loss. After that Boca played two matches in Argentina, but twice they not looked too convincing: 1:1 on the road against San Lorenzo and in last game they won 1:0 at home against Newell’s by late goal scored from penalty kick (goalkeeper Romero was man of the match). Hosts today without two key players: Fernandez (second-best Boca player in this competition, according to the ratings) and their best assistant in Copa Zeballos. It’s huge blow and should have very bad impact on their performance today.

On the other hand Estudiantes coming for this game with very strong line up and we will see on the pitch all their best players in this competitions. In addition to that, guests are in very good form at the moment. They coming for this game after 2 consecutive wins (Defensa at home & Cordoba on the road). Both results fully deserves as they finished matches with higher expected goals scored number than opponents.

Estudiandes is in better form, is in better mood, have mental advantage and their line up is not depleted. Double chance on away side looks like great option to play.

在我看来，在今天的比赛中，学生们有很好的机会避免失败。

比赛在中立的场地进行，但是大学生队带着良好的心理优势来参加这场比赛，他们今年两次对阵博卡青年队，得到4分，一球未失。

博卡青年已经有很长一段时间状态不佳了。自9月底以来，他们在各项赛事中进行了12场比赛，但只取得了2场胜利。三周前，他们在解放者杯决赛中输给了弗拉门戈队，这是一个非常痛苦的失败。在那之后，博卡在阿根廷打了两场比赛，但两场比赛看起来都不太令人信服:在客场1:1战胜圣洛伦佐，上一场比赛他们在主场1:0战胜纽维尔的点球(门将罗梅罗是本场最佳球员)。今天的东道主没有两名关键球员:费尔南德斯(根据收视率，博卡在本届杯赛中第二好的球员)和他们在西巴洛斯杯的最佳助理。这是一个巨大的打击，应该会对他们今天的表现产生非常糟糕的影响。

另一方面，参加这场比赛的学生阵容非常强大，我们将在比赛中看到他们所有最好的球员。除此之外，客人们现在状态都很好。他们是在两连胜之后来看这场比赛的(国防在主场，科尔多瓦在客场)。这两个结果都是值得的，因为他们在比赛结束时的预期进球数比对手高。

埃斯杜迪安斯状态更好，情绪更好，有心理优势，他们的阵容也没有枯竭。客场的双重机会看起来是个不错的选择。
