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 last Thursday, 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.
