Betting on Velez Sarfield
Ricardo Gareca failed to win in his official debut as manager after his return to El Fortín, drawing against Platense. The team from Liniers ended up with a 1-1 draw against a Platense team who resisted a result that positions Velez Sarsfield 14th in the standings.
To make matters worse, Gareca had to deal with the hard news of Lucas Janson’s injury. According to Velez’s medical report, the left striker suffered “a small tear in the hamstring muscles of his right leg during the warm-up prior to the match against Platense” and will have to rest for ten to fifteen days, depending on the evolution of the injury.
Possible lineup (4-3-3): Leonardo Burián; Tomás Guidara, Lautaro Gianetti, Diego Godín, Francisco Ortega; Elías Cabera, Juan Méndez, José Florentín; Santiago Castro, Walter Bou, Abiel Osorio,
Betting on Central Cordoba
On the other hand, Central Córdoba is on a good run, as the Santiago del Estero team, coached by Leonardo Madelón, managed to win 2-0 at home against Tigre last week.
This victory gave the “ferroviario” 8 points that place them in 18th place with one point less than its rival, Vélez Sarsfield, which it will face on Tuesday. For this new game, the visitors will be looking to continue their comeback from a disastrous start to the season in the Amalfitani Stadium.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Marcos Ledesma; Brian Blais, Fabio Pereyra, Gonzalo Goñi, Gustavo Canto; Leandro Maciel, Mauro Pitón; Ciro Rius, Brian Farioli, Lucas Besozzi; Facundo Castelli.
JefeBet Prediction
Given the current sporting situation of both clubs, Velez vs Central Córdoba is expected to be an even duel from the start. However, it is important to consider the good moment in which the visitors are coming, as they have not lost since February 19.
What’s more, Velez fans trust on the mystique of Ricardo Gareca, an expert in bringing out the hidden potential of players from individual deficiencies, can provide.
Prediction: Velez wins (VEL 1-0 COR)
