Godoy Cruz vs Velez
Godoy Cruz had to settle for a devastating 3-3 away draw at Sarandi Arsenal last time out despite having taken a 3-0 lead at one point. As a result, the team are now on three league matches without a win (two stalemates and one defeat) and accumulate ten points in the Copa Liga Profesional. Therefore, El Tomba dropped down to the relegation zone. Following this negative streak, coach Diego Flores left the club. Furthermore, Godoy Cruz are on seven home matches without a win, having drawn four and lost three since beating Banfield 2-1 in October.
Velez Sarsfield had to settle for a scoreless home draw against Boca Juniors in their last league game. As a result, they won only one of the last eight matches in this competition (having drawn four and lost three) and accumulated only ten points to remain far away from the qualifying places in group B. However, the team also managed four points from six on offer in the league under interim boss Julio Vaccari. In addition, Velez are on eight league games without a win on away turf, having drawn two and lost six in that time.
Godoy Cruz are on a bad situation but Velez is not any better, and they have an additional problem which is tiredness after playing consecutive midweek Copa Libertadores games where they got only 1 point and conceded 6 goals, so I’m going with the hosts here.
