• Venue: Estadio Julio Humberto Grondona (Avellaneda)

Despite finally earning 3 points in the Argentinian league cup, Arsenal Sarandi remains stuck in last place. The 4th place and a spot in the playoffs seem highly unlikely at this point. Instead, their main focus should be on improving their game and boosting their confidence before the Argentine Championship begins. With a rich tradition, Arsenal Sarandi needs a significant transformation in all areas.

Banfield demonstrated its strength and cohesiveness in the previous two rounds, securing a victory against Lanus and a draw against River Plate. However, their performance prior to that was rather lackluster and mediocre. There remains a possibility for the team to contend for one of the top four positions, but they must elevate their game in the latter half of the competition. Currently, they trail Colon Santa Fe by three points in the 4th place standings.

Arsenal Sarandi vs Banfield pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

Only 11 goals have been scored in 7 Banfield matches so far. The defense is at a very high level, while the attack is quite decent but not efficient enough. It is interesting that the 3 previous direct matches ended 0-0. It means that in almost 5 hours of the game there is no goal. If we go back a bit, two more matches ended with 2 or less goals, so the last 5 direct duels were under 2.5 goals. We expect another low scoring match with 2 or less goals in the whole match
