Lanus faces a challenging task as they aim to put an end to Racing Club's unbeaten streak in Buenos Aires!
Lanus' start to the 2024 top-flight season hasn't been flawless, with just one win in their first four league matches.
Depending on how you see it, this could be seen as a glass-half-empty situation, with the focus on the one win in four. However, optimists will highlight the ongoing three-match unbeaten streak since Ricardo Zielinski's side suffered a 2-0 defeat to Independiente Rivadavia on the opening day.
Since that loss, Lanus has managed to avoid defeat, albeit with a narrow 2-1 victory over Estudiantes followed by 1-1 draws against San Lorenzo and Rosario Central.
In contrast, Racing enters their fifth league fixture of the new campaign with no such issues, enjoying a near-perfect start.
Under the management of Gustavo Costas, Racing sits atop the standings after four matches, scoring 12 goals and conceding just four.
Despite being level on 10 points with three other sides — Talleres, Huracan, and Union — Racing's superior goal difference puts them in pole position for the title if the competition were to end now.
Prediction: Lanus 0-2 Racing Club
