BUENOS AIRES (Interstat) — A struggling Newell’s Old Boys, projected by a statistical model to find an unlikely victory, faces a surging Huracán in a Primera Nacional match on Saturday, Nov. 8, 2025.

The visiting Newell’s Old Boys enter the contest in dismal form, sitting near the bottom of the domestic league table with a record of 2-8-4. Their struggles extend across all competitions, where they are 11-21-11. The team is reeling from a 1-0 home loss to Unión on Oct. 31, part of a run that has seen them win just once in their last 10 matches across all tournaments.

Huracán presents a stark contrast. The home side is firmly in the league mix with a 7-5-2 record and is buoyed by a 3-1 road victory over Defensa y Justicia on Nov. 3. Their overall record of 11-10-10 reflects a more consistent campaign.

Despite the clear form guide, Interstat’s game simulator forecasts a 2-1 upset win for Newell’s Old Boys. The projection sets up a compelling clash between Huracán’s recent momentum and a visiting team desperate to reverse its fortunes.
