Barracas Central vs. Colon
Barracas Central has the opportunity to extend their impressive undefeated streak at home in the Argentine Primera Division to 11 games as they prepare to welcome Colon to the Claudio Fabian Tapia Stadium on Monday.
Just seven days ago, Baraquenos climbed out of the bottom spot in Group A, all thanks to a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Sarmiento. Meanwhile, Colon finds themselves only one point behind Independiente for the top spot in the standings, having recently played to a scoreless draw in front of their home crowd against Union.
Throughout the domestic campaign of 2023, Barracas has consistently relied on quick starts and the advantage of playing on their home turf. This trend has been particularly evident in the second phase of the season, with all seven of their earned points originating from matches at Claudio Fabian Tapia Stadium. Interestingly, two of their three goals during this phase have been netted within the initial 10 minutes of play.

However, during their last match on the previous Monday, they couldn’t sustain their early lead. They conceded an equalizing goal just seven minutes after taking the lead. This marked only the third instance in league play this year where the team couldn’t secure three points domestically after scoring the opening goal. Notably, it was the first time such an occurrence happened since Sergio Rondina assumed control of the team in April.
What to remember – Barracas Central vs. Colon
Barracas has undeniably displayed a more solid defensive performance when playing in front of their home supporters. However, their upcoming challenge is formidable, as they face a confident Colon side that has been in excellent form during this phase of the campaign. This suggests that securing three points might pose a significant challenge for Baraquenos in this upcoming match.
