2025-04-07 | Game Summary

In a dominant display at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium on April 6, 2025, Argentinos Juniors defeated Defensa y Justicia 4-1 in the Argentine Liga Profesional de Fútbol. The home side established an early lead, with goals from Emiliano Viveros (5'), Leandro Lozano (12'), Tomas Molina (24'), and Román Vega (31') effectively sealing the victory before halftime. Defensa y Justicia managed a consolation goal through Abiel Osorio in the 52nd minute, but it wasn't enough to spark a comeback.
Argentinos Juniors controlled the game with 64% possession, converting their dominance into 13 total shots, 8 of which were on target. Defensa y Justicia, despite committing 17 fouls, only managed 8 shots with 3 on target. Argentinos Juniors' goalkeeper was forced into only 2 saves, while Defensa y Justicia's counterpart made 4 saves. Both teams fielded a 4-3-3 formation.
The AI-powered pre-game prediction favored Argentinos Juniors with a 46.8% win probability, and that prediction proved accurate. The AI model didn't expect a balanced game and that was true.
Looking ahead, Argentinos Juniors will face Newell's Old Boys away on April 11th. Argentinos Juniors' form has been inconsistent, with a recent draw against Central Córdoba, a loss to Aldosivi, interspersed with wins over Banfield and Instituto. Newell's Old Boys' recent form is similar with draws and wins. The last head-to-head matches favor Argentinos Juniors, but playing in Rosario will be a challenge.
Defensa y Justicia, on the other hand, will host Unión (Santa Fe) on April 14th. Defensa y Justicia's recent form is worrying, with a draw in the Copa Sudamericana against Cerro Largo and heavy defeats to Tigre and Boca Juniors. Their upcoming match against Unión, who have been equally inconsistent, will be a test of their resilience. Defensa y Justicia's recent struggles are a stark contrast to their earlier wins against Estudiantes de La Plata and Platense, highlighting their inconsistency. Their next rival, Unión Santa Fe, has a similar form.
Analyzing the previous games, Argentinos Juniors have generally struggled to maintain consistency at home, while Defensa y Justicia have found it difficult to secure points away from home. The previous head-to-head record shows a mixed bag, with both teams having secured victories in the past. This game, however, was clearly dominated by Argentinos Juniors from the start, setting the tone for their upcoming matches. Defensa y Justicia will need to address their defensive frailties if they hope to turn their form around.
