Talleres – Gimnasia

Talleres took advantage of Huracan’s crisis to secure a vital 1-0 away success in their last league game, with Jose Romero finding the back of the net in the 85th minute. The team made it four league games unbeaten (two victories and two draws) to hold onto the second spot of the Liga Profesional table, accumulating 48 points. Even though it’s not enough to keep dreaming of the title (as River Plate are nine points ahead with two rounds to go), La T continue increasing their tally to clinch a Copa Libertadores ticket at the end of the season. At home, Talleres haven’t lost any of their last eight games (winning five and drawing three). On Thursday 20, Javier Gandolfi’s men won 1-0 over River Plate in the Copa Argentina second round.

Gimnasia LP are experiencing a poor moment of form. Last time out, the team were dominated from beginning to end and suffered a 3-1 home defeat to Boca Juniors. As a result, El Lobo are now on five league games without a win, drawing three and losing two in that time, a negative streak that drops them down to the 22nd spot of the Liga Profesional table on 28 points, nine above Huracan (who are currently getting relegated). Gimnasia grabbed just two points from the last 15 on offer on away turf in domestic action. Playmaker Alan Lescano is suspended after reaching the yellow-card limit. Matias Melluso and Cristian Tarragona remain sidelined.

Talleres are on a great run again, with a win they will secure 2nd place to get closer to a Copa Libertadores 2024 spot and they should get it against this poor Gimnasia.
