San Lorenzo vs Tigre
San Lorenzo played their best game and secured their first victory in the Liga Profesional last Tuesday, when they managed to beat CA Central Cordoba 2-0 away thanks to goals from Ivan Leguizamon and Adam Bareiro. As a result, the team made it six points in this competition and six league matches unbeaten, having won two and drawn four in that spell.
Tigre played one of their worst games of the season and succumbed to an unexpected 1-0 home defeat to Banfield last Sunday. Therefore, the team are now on three league games without a win, having drawn one and lost two. Diego Martinez’s men accumulated four points in as many games in the Liga Profesional, but they also are still occupying 11th place of the aggregate table. On away turf, El Matador won 2-1 at Union Santa Fe and lost 5-3 at Boca Juniors. Captain Sebastian Prediger had to be replaced against Banfield due to a muscle problem and will miss out.
San Lorenzo is unpredictable but they’ve been at least solid so far in this tournament, they are undefeated and coming from a good win so even though Tigre might be the better team to have the hosts as underdogs is a bet I must take.
