Union Santa Fe have climbed into the last Copa Sudamericana berth on 14 points after their 1-0 away success at Gimnasia LP thanks to a goal from Ezequiel Bonifacio in the second half. The team have collected ten points from the last 12 available, winning their last three Superliga games in a row. At 15 de Abril Stadium, El Tatengue earned seven points following two victories, one draw and one defeat.
Independiente lost 1-0 to Argentinos Juniors at home, which represented their second consecutive league defeat. That prevented them from approaching the top of the table as they remain on 13 points in nine games (they still have one in hand). A few days ago, coach Sebastian Beccacece has been dismissed after the team’s 2-0 loss to Lanus in the Copa Argentina. Independiente booked two wins and three losses on the road in the Superliga.
Can’t understand this high odds for an improved Union team that comes from good results against an Independiente with an interim coach and in the middle of a crisis, so I have to go for the home win.
