Betting on Sarmiento
Sarmiento occupies 16th place in the Argentine League standings with eight points from two wins, two ties and three losses. This campaign is acceptable, but it does not help them to be safe in relation with the relegation places. The averages standings have them positioned at 26th place, only above Platense and Arsenal, teams that are currently in the relegation zone.
Last week they lost 1-0 to Racing as visitors, a game in which they registered only 31% of ball possession, attempted eight shots of which only one was on target. In addition, they committed 14 fouls and conceded 11 corners, while winning only one.
Probable lineup (5-4-1): Sebastián Meza; Gonzalo Bettini, Manuel García, Alejandro Donatti, Juan Insaurralde, Gabriel Díaz; Lucas Melano, Emiliano Méndez, Fernando Martínez, Luciano Gondou; Lisandro López.
Betting on River Plate
The visiting team is the only runner-up of San Lorenzo and has 15 units, only one less than the leader of the Argentine League. In seven games they won five, drew none and lost two; scoring 12 goals and conceding only five.
Last weekend, River won with authority against Godoy Cruz by a score of 3-0 at the Más Monumental Stadium, in a match they registered 66% possession of the ball, attempted 16 shots of which 5 were on goal, and won seven corners.
Probable lineup (4-3-2-1): Franco Armani; Milton Casco, Leandro González Pirez, Paulo Díaz, Enzo Díaz; Rodrigo Aliendro, Enzo Pérez, Agustín Palavecino; José Paradela, Ignacio Fernández; Lucas Beltrán.
JefeBet Prediction
Sarmiento and River Plate have faced each other 13 times, of which the team from Junín won 2, while River won eight.
It seems that Martín Demichelis’ team is more organized in defense, a debt that had to be paid if they wanted to be contenders for the title. Taking everything into account, at JefeBet we believe that River will comfortably as visitors.
Prediction: River Plate wins 2-0
