Union Santa Fe have been far more streaky. Their twenty-match sample shows seven wins, three draws and ten losses, with goals shared roughly evenly at both ends. They've lost their last two games after previously stringing together three straight wins, so their form has bounced both ways recently.

Riestra's tendency to draw makes goals hard to predict, while Union Santa Fe's inconsistency cuts both ways.

The gap in points and position lines up with what the form figures show: Union Santa Fe create and concede more, Riestra do neither very often.

Key men on the pitch

Union Santa Fe's main threat going forward is C. Tarragona, who has scored fourteen goals in twenty-seven matches this season, comfortably their leading source of goals. J. Palacios and R. Profini have been the main creators, chipping in five to seven assists apiece.

Deportivo Riestra:
Penalty cards:
F. Miño red card x 9
Union Santa Fe:
Best assist providers:
J. Palacios - 7
R. Profini - 5

For Riestra, the disciplinary numbers stand out more than the attacking ones. F. Miño and J. Goitía have picked up the most cards in the squad, which fits a side that spends a lot of time defending rather than dictating games.

Watch how much service Tarragona gets against a Riestra side built to frustrate.

How this one might play out

Given Riestra's habit of drawing low-scoring games at home and Union Santa Fe's unpredictable away form, this has the look of a tight, cagey contest rather than a shootout.

If Union Santa Fe's attack turns up the way it has in their better games, they have enough quality up top to trouble a defence that has managed only a handful of wins all season. But Riestra have shown they can dig out points even when they're not scoring much themselves.

With nothing concrete to test the numbers against, there's little basis for putting forward a pick here.

Riestra's low-scoring draws and Union Santa Fe's streaky away form both point to an unpredictable afternoon, and that uncertainty is reason enough to sit this one out.
