Goal Statistics

River Plate have been steady in attack of late, finding the net in 6 consecutive Primera División games. Their PG of 1.6 against Rosario Central on Sunday suggests that run is likely to continue.

A truly awful PG of just 0.7 should cause concerns for Rosario Central fans, as should a 9 Primera División games run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
