Velez Sarsfield vs Independiente Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

On August 16, Velez Sarsfield are hosting Independiente in the Round 2 of the Liga Profesional in Argentina. The game starts at 23:30 UTC.

6 months after their last match in Liga Profesional Round 1, the spotlight turns to the field where Velez Sarsfield and Independiente square off once more. In their last face-off, Independiente secured a 3-0 win. Velez Sarsfield head into this game after their recent draw with Fortaleza last Tuesday in the Copa Libertadores Playoffs. They have struggled to make an impact, with no goals in their past four matches, a worrying sign ahead of their next encounter.

Independiente's current performances leave more to be desired, as they prepare for this match after a loss to Universidad de Chile in the Copa Sudamericana Play Offs yesterday, unable to secure a win in their last six games. Their defense has shown cracks, conceding goals in their last five away matches in a row.

This Liga Profesional Round 2 encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for Velez Sarsfield and Independiente throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. Maher Carrizo and Braian Romero have been pivotal for Velez Sarsfield’s attack, guided by Guillermo Schelotto, combining to deliver important goals and assists.

Adding further support are Alvaro Montoro, Elias Gomez and Francisco Pizzini, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Independiente’s attacking options, under Julio Vaccari’s guidance, have been bolstered by Gabriel Avalos, the team’s top scorer, and Felipe Loyola, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Avalos has emerged as Independiente’s leading scorer in Liga Profesional Round 2 this season, netting one goal, as Montiel continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with one assist.
