Barracas Central’s 23 Clausura points put the focus on Racing’s away resistance

The current table favours Barracas

Can Barracas Central’s stronger Clausura record withstand Racing Club’s away test? The evidence gives the hosts the clearer platform: they are provisionally #6 in Clausura - Group B with 23 points from 15 games, while Racing are #12 with 15 points from 15 games. The match is Friday, November 6, 2026, at 18:00 UTC at Estadio Claudio Chiqui Tapia.

The recent five-match samples offer a more mixed picture. Barracas’ sequence is Loss, Draw, Draw, Win, Loss; Racing’s is Loss, Loss, Loss, Win, Win. That is context rather than a definitive momentum verdict, but it makes the opening exchanges important for a fixture between teams with contrasting current Clausura records.

Home record against Racing’s away profile

Barracas’ home-season record is 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses, with 15 goals scored and 13 conceded. Racing’s away record is 5 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses, with 17 goals scored and 19 conceded. The hosts have kept 5 home clean sheets; Racing have recorded 6 away clean sheets, a defensive factor that could shape the contest.

Two different regular shapes

Barracas most often used a 5-3-2 in 12 matches and a 3-5-2 in 11. Racing’s most-used formation was 4-3-3, deployed in 12 matches.

In Apertura - Group B, both teams have 21 points: Racing are #8 and Barracas #9. The concrete kickoff question is whether Barracas’ 23-point Clausura platform can be converted into enough home control against Racing’s away clean-sheet record.
