Betting on Union Santa Fe
Unión registers only three points out of a possible 15. Undoubtedly, this campaign does not meet the expectations of either the professional squad or its fans. The local team has lost two games, drawn three, and has been unable to win so far. In addition, the team from Santa Fe has conceded 5 goals, so for this new clash they will have to work on its defensive lines.
To make matters worse, last weekend, they lost 1-0 to San Lorenzo at the Nuevo Gasómetro. Gustavo Munúa’s team does not find depth when they have the ball, something that is clear in two statistics. They had 60% of the possession and only generated three chances, with just one shot on goal.
Probable lineup (3-4-3): Santiago Mele, Federico Vera, Oscar Piris, Claudio Corvalán, Francisco Gerometta, Yeison Gordillo, Luciano Aued, Lucas Esquivel, Imanol Machuca, Thiago Vecino, Kevin Zenon.
Betting on Estudiantes
Estudiantes de La Plata has only five points out of a possible fifteen, starting the tournament on the wrong foot. The last match was a 1-1 draw at home against the weak Sarmiento de Junín and this is not a minor fact, given that out of nine possible points at home, they only obtained two.
For the visit to Santa Fe, several changes are expected, many of them forced, such as that of Guido Carrillo, who will probably not be fit. On the other hand, Leonardo Godoy could return to his place at right back after three games, as well as center back Ezequiel Muñoz, who was part of the squad last weekend but did not play any minutes.
Probable lineup (3-4-3): Mariano Andújar, Luciano Lollo, Jorge Rodríguez, Zaid Romero, Leandra Godoy, Fernando Zuqui, Santiago Ascacibar, Emmanuel Más, Benjamín Rollheiser, Mauro Boselli, Pablo Piatti.
JefeBet Prediction
Union and Estudiantes have faced each other 63 times in their history, with Union winning 10 matches and Estudiantes 32. Although both coaches are struggling to rack up positive results, Balbo is the one most in need of a victory to dispel rumors of a possible departure. For this reason, at JefeBet we believe that the Pincha platense, this time, it will be able to change that pressure for points.
Prediction: Estudiantes wins 1-0.
