Godoy Cruz – Union

Godoy Cruz are currently living a dream in the Copa Liga Profesional. Last Saturday, the team secured a massive 1-0 away success at Belgrano thanks to a strike from Tomas Badaloni in the second half even though coach Daniel Oldra rested some of his usual starters. As a result, El Tomba remain perfect in this competition, accumulating 12 points to stay as group B leaders alongside Newell’s Old Boys. The side are on six league matches unbeaten, winning four and drawing two. Godoy Cruz beat Defensa y Justicia and Lanus playing as hosts at Gimnasia Mendoza this term and will return to the Estadio Malvinas Argentinas on Tuesday.

Union Santa Fe had a rough evening last Friday and ended up succumbed to an unexpected 3-1 home defeat to group B leaders Newell’s Old Boys. Therefore, El Tatengue are now without a win in their last three league matches (one stalemate and two losses). Accumulating only four points in as many Copa Liga Profesional rounds, the team are edging dangerously closer to the relegation zone in the point-average table.

Godoy Cruz winning streak will end at some point, but I’ll trust them that this won’t happen today. Union has been going from a great start with a win at Racing to worse after their 1-3 defeat at home vs Newell’s, they’ve struggled to score with only 1 goal in the last 3 games.
