Boca Juniors and Velez Sarsfield will both be looking to improve on their indifferent starts to the season when they square off on Friday.
These two teams head into their fifth Argentine Primera Division fixture of the season sitting in 18th and 15th place in the standings respectively.
We say: Boca Juniors 2-1 Velez Sarsfield
With the form of each team suggesting that they are evenly matched at this stage, we anticipate a closely-fought contest at La Bombonera. However, home advantage could prove key for Boca, who may feel more inclined to go on the offensive in a tight fixture.

Talleres host Platense at the Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes on Friday, keen to stay among the Argentine Primera Division‘s leading sides after gameweek five.
The home side are undefeated after four rounds and are undoubted favourites against an opponent whose start to the second half of the campaign has been mixed.
We say: Talleres 2-0 Platense
Talleres seem to be in healthier form than Platense, and that reliability in performance at both ends of the pitch means the home side should secure maximum points against their inconsistent opponent for a fourth league triumph in five games.
