Betting on San Lorenzo
San Lorenzo is a team that scores few goals, and bases its performance and results on its solidity: if the team scores a goal, it is difficult for its opponents to score, and if the team start losing, then Rubén Darío Insúa’s team will almost certainly work until the match is tied.
The same thing happened last weekend, when it started losing to Huracán, their all-time rival. However, before the end of the first half, San Lorenzo had already equalized again with a goal by Jalil Elías.
The team had less ball possession than Huracán (41%), it attempted seven shots on goal, and only managed to score three of them. Is that too little? It may be, but it is enough for a team that is blunt, since having only six goals scored is enough to be at the top of the Argentine First Division.
Possible Lineup (3-4-3): Augusto Batalla; Federico Gattoni, Rafael Pérez, Gastón Hernández; Gastón Campi, Jalil Elías, Carlos Sánchez and Malcom Braida; Andrés Vombergar, Adam Bareiro and Ezequiel Cerutti.
Betting on Gimnasia
Gimnasia is not in good shape, neither in terms of soccer nor institutionally. In fact, it holds the 22nd position in the Argentine League, with only five points.
Last weekend, the team drew 0-0 against Colón de Santa Fe at home, no less than the last team in the tournament along with Banfield. However, Himnasia is not so far from such positions either: since it is only two points ahead.
In that match, Gimnasia had more ball posession (59%), it attempted 14 shots at goal, and only managed to score four of them. The team also failed to take advantage of the seven corners it had, so the great weakness of this team is scoring. Besides, it is worth mentioning that it only scored three goals in six dates to make this aspect clear.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Tomás Druso; Bautista Barros Schelotto, Leonardo Morales, Felipe Sánchez and Matías Melluso; Alan Lescano, Ignacio Miramón; Guillermo Enrique, Maximiliano Comba and Benjamín Domínguez; and Cristian Tarragona.
JefeBet Prediction
The history of San Lorenzo vs Gimnasia shows that both teams clashed 155 times in the professional era. Of all those instances, San Lorenzo won 77, while Gimnasia has won only 38.
There is a big difference between these teams. However, we do not believe this will be reflected in the results, but in the dominance of the match, instead. JefeBet believes that San Lorenzo will win by a minimum difference.
Prediction: San Lorenzo wins 1-0
