Argentinos Jrs – Defensa y Justicia
Argentinos Juniors earned a valuable point on their visit to Gimnasia LP last time out, when drawing 2-2 in an entertaining match. However, the team also are on three league games without a win, including two stalemates and one loss after a good start in this competition. El Bicho managed eight points in five games, which means they occupy eighth spot in group A and are trailing Sarmiento (in fourth) by two. On a positive note, Gabriel Milito’s men have been unbeaten in their last five home matches, winning three and drawing two.
Defenssa y Justicia climbed into the qualifying zone in group A thanks to their 3-2 away success at Banfield last Sunday, when Agustin Fontana netted the winner in the 89th minute. El Halcon are on four league matches unbeaten, having won three and drawn one to reach second spot in group A on ten points. Sebastian Beccacece’s men claimed seven victories across their last nine away matches, along with one draw and one defeat in that time.
Defensa can be the leaders of the group with a win, and considering they are a very solid team they should be able to take something from this game.
