Who will win between Racing and Nacional?

Racing de Montevideo are the pick to win this one, thanks to better form and a strong mental edge. History warns against it — Nacional have won seven of nine meetings and Racing have never beaten them at home.

Are Racing favourites despite their poor record?

Yes, narrowly — CheckLive's data gives the hosts the edge despite Nacional's stranglehold on the fixture. Racing have lost just one of five, while Nacional have lost three of their last five and look shakier.

Will both teams score in this fixture?

Both teams scoring is a real possibility here — the last meeting finished 1-1 and H2H games average 3.1 goals. Racing's own matches have been tighter, so this is not a confident call either way.
