Betting on Godoy Cruz
In 2022, the team from Mendoza had one of the worst performances since they have been in the first division, and this season they must rack up positive results to avoid problems with relegation. For this season, they bet on the return of Diego Flores as head coach, and little by little they are accumulating the necessary points to get out of trouble.
It started with two consistent wins (against Barracas Central and Colón) and lost to San Lorenzo during the last matchday. In that match, they suffered the loss of defender Gianluca Ferrari, whose knee injury will keep him out for the rest of the tournament.
Probable lineup (4-1-4-1): Diego Rodríguez; Pier Barrios, Lucas Arce, Federico Rasmussen, Thomas Galdames; Juan Andrada; Tomás Conechny, Roberto Fernández, Gonzalo Ábrego, Matías Ramírez; Tadeo Allende.
Estudiantes Preview
A disappointing start to the season for Estudiantes, which had focused all its expectations on the arrival of Abel Balbo as technical director. However, the team lost two games and drew the remaining one, and to make matters worse, it has not demonstrated a clear idea of the game
For this Godoy Cruz vs Estudiantes match, the coach will probably make several changes with respect to the formation that lost at home against Lanús. The question is whether there will be a change of system or if he will continue to use two strikers in the initial lineup.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Mariano Andújar; Eros Mancuso, Juan Cruz Guasone, Zaid Romero, Emmanuel Mas; Benjamín Rollheiser, Santiago Ascacíbar, Fernando Zuqui, Matías Godoy; Guido Carrillo, Mauro Boselli.
JefeBet Prediction
Estudiantes has to get back on track in the championship, and it is finding difficulties to play collectively. On the other hand, Godoy Cruz has a generation of young players who are growing under the guidance of their obsessive coach. For this reason, at JefeBet, we believe that the team from Mendoza will win the match.
Prediction: Godoy Cruz wins 2-0.
