Lanus vs Arsenal
Lanus are getting worse game after game. Last time out, the side suffered a deserved 2-0 away defeat at Newell’s Old Boys (who were on eight league games without a win). Therefore, El Granate made it ten winless matches in the league (two draws and eight losses) while they remain bottom in the Liga Profesional table on only seven points and also are the worst outfit in the aggregate rankings, a terrible campaign that could compromise the team’s top-flight status in the future. At home, Lanus took two points from the last 12 on offer in domestic action.
Sarandi Arsenal showed a great display of effort to secure a scoreless home draw against title candidates River Plate last Wednesday. That result means El Viaducto are on four league matches unbeaten (one victory and three stalemates) and accumulated 18 points in the Liga Profesional, which allows them to hold a healthy six-point gap over the first relegation spot in the respective table, occupied by Aldosivi.
I know Lanus is far from being reliable but they won’t just lose forever and a game at home vs the irregular Arsenal looks like a good spot for them to grab those very needed points.
