Betting on Colon
Colón de Santa Fe could not have a worse start to the year. They lost 1-2 to Lanús at home at the start of the Professional League, and last weekend they lost again, this time to Godoy Cruz, in Mendoza, by a score of 1-0.
They played badly but not as badly as against Lanús, and so after the match Saralegui analyzed the defeat with several criticisms but also with some things worth to be highlighted:
“We still have a lot of confidence, but we were not able to have the possession of the ball. But the few moments we had the control of the ball, we generated two or three important chances. The big deficit was the midfield, and that’s why we abused of long distance passes”.
Wanchope Ábila, who did not play last weekend due to pubalgia, could be in the starting line-up for the match against Sarmiento.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Ignacio Chicco, Eric Meza, Facundo Garcés, Paolo Goltz, Andrew Teuten, Santiago Pierotti, Baldomero Perlaza, Julián Chicco, Joaquín Ibáñez, Pablo Neris, Jorge Benítez or Ramón Ábila.
Betting on Sarmiento
Sarmiento de Junín played a great match last weekend, when it hosted Barracas Central at the Eva Perón stadium. It was a 3-5 loss, and there are several things to note from this game.
Among the good things, it should be noted that partially they recovered from a 0-2 deficit 6′ into the game and forcing the result to remain open until the end. Another highlight was the performance of Luciano Zanelli, who scored three goals (two on penalty). On the other hand, the bad news was that Juan Insaurralde, who received two yellow cards, will not be available for the next match.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Sebastián Meza; Gonzalo Bettini, Santiago Morales, Franco Sbuttoni and Franco Quinteros; Manuel Mónaco, Emiliano Méndez, José Mauri and Sergio Gabutti; Luciano Zanelli and Lisandro López.
JefeBet Prediction
The history between Colón vs Sarmiento de Junín is short, given that they have only met seven times, of which Colón won twice and Sarmiento three times. El Sabalero showed some signs of improved performance last weekend, but to win they will need to keep it up for longer, and we don’t think that will happen. For JefeBet, the match will end in a draw.
Prediction: Colón and Sarmiento will draw by a score of 1-1.
