Racing Club de Montevideo and Miramar Misiones have met 18 times in Uruguay’s Primera División since 2008. Racing dominate the series with 10 wins, five draws and only three defeats, scoring 28 goals to Miramar’s 14. At Estadio Osvaldo Roberto, Racing’s home ground, the record is even starker: six wins and two draws from eight league visits, last tasting defeat there in March 2013 (0-1).
Across the last five competitive clashes Racing remain unbeaten (W3 D2), most recently a 2-0 away win in October 2023 where striker Federico Martínez scored both goals. Miramar’s sole victory in the sequence came in August 2021 (1-0) thanks to a late Agustín Dávila header, their only clean sheet versus Racing since 2015.
Average match metrics underline Racing’s control: 56 % possession, 14.3 shots per game and 5.7 on target, compared with Miramar’s 44 %, 10.1 shots and 3.8 on target. Racing also concede fewer cards (1.9 vs 2.6 per match) and have kept eight clean sheets in the 18 fixtures, while Miramar have managed just three.
Current 2024 Apertura form sees Racing fifth (3 W, 1 D, 1 L, 8-4 GF-GA), whereas Miramar sit 13th (1 W, 2 D, 2 L, 4-7). Top scorers in the fixture are Racing’s Martín Alaníz (4) and Miramar’s Mathías Saavedra (3), both available this weekend. With Racing’s home strength and Miramar’s struggle for goals, the historical edge and recent numbers both point toward another Albiceleste advantage.
