San Lorenzo’s nine-match unbeaten run of six victories and three draws in all competitions came to an end last Saturday when the side produced their worst performance in the Copa Liga Profesional and ended up losing 2-0 to Talleres at home. That defeat also broke a four-game positive streak at Estadio Pedro Bidegain, where El Ciclon had won three and drawn one beforehand.
After their remarkable first stage in the Copa Liga Profesional, Colon started their campaign in the Fase Campeonato with a sorry performance, having lost 2-0 to Gimnasia LP at home. Therefore, the team suffered two defeats in their last three matches, along with a single win, On a positive note, El Sabalero took ten points from 12 on offer on away turf since coach Eduardo Dominguez arrived in March.
Both lost in the 1st round of this championship group, and because it’s only 5 games another defeat or even a draw would mean their chances are gone, so I expect an open game with at least a couple of goals.
