Estudiantes, in a results crisis, wants to get back to winning ways against xeneize

The team from La Plata has been struggling in the last few days, with defeats against Platense and Sarmiento in the League Cup, and against River in the Super Cup. However, time is running out and they will have to face Boca with the urgency of getting three points again. 

Estudiantes is third in its zone, with 18 points, but behind it there is Boca, which in case of a victory would leave the pincharata without its place in the group of the 4 best teams of the zone, so, for the striped team there is no other option but to get three points and get into the fight for the places to advance to the next round.
