Platense 0-4 Talleres Córdoba result, stats and report

Platense dominated possession and territory for long stretches at home, yet Unión Santa Fe twice led before a late equaliser made it 2-2 in a match defined by own goals, a penalty, VAR interventions, and a Platense side that cannot stop conceding at home.

Newell's Old Boys secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Talleres Córdoba at home, with a 55th-minute penalty providing the only goal in a match where Talleres controlled possession and territory but could not find a way through.

Belgrano took all three points from the Córdoba derby with a 1-0 win at Talleres, leaving the home side with serious questions about their desire and accountability on home turf.

Platense have won zero of their last ten games. Talleres are fourth in the Liga Profesional. Monday night in Buenos Aires has all the ingredients for a visitors' win, and the numbers back it up.

It's match day. Talleres Córdoba host Vélez Sarsfield tonight at 11pm UK time in the Argentine Liga Profesional. Both sides are drifting at the wrong moment. Jay Thompson breaks it all down before kick-off.

Instituto host a Platense side without a win in their last nine Liga Profesional outings. The home side aren't exactly flying either, but at evens they look the right side to be on. Jay Thompson breaks it all down.

Platense have not won a single home game in their last five attempts and are conceding freely, while Unión Santa Fe arrive carrying both genuine attacking intent and a defence that simply cannot hold a lead. Something has to give on Sunday.

Newell's Old Boys sit deep in the Liga Profesional danger zone as Talleres Córdoba arrive at the Estadio Marcelo Bielsa on Sunday, and the gap between these two clubs in the standings tells a story that matters well beyond three points.
