Barracas Central vs Gimnasia L.P. Match Preview

Barakas Central welcomes Gimnasia Escrima de la Plata as part of the 22nd matchday of the Argentinian league.

The hosts were beaten 1-0 away by Velez on Monday morning, showing once again that it is difficult to score and even more difficult to win on the road, having scored seven goals and won once in ten games. At home, they show a much better face since they have one of the best home records in the league having four consecutive wins and having conceded just two goals.

On the other hand, the guests lost on Sunday 0-1 against Tigre at home, thus making it three defeats without even scoring in the last four matches. Away from home in eleven games, they have scored just seven goals, and the fact is that in all those games there have been at most two goals scored.

In conclusion, I expect a game in which both teams will appear tired due to having played again four days ago. Gimnasia will select a defensive role due to the difficulty of scoring away from home. I will stake 5 units on the under 2.5 goals alternative at 1.65 odds which have enough value as I expect Gimnasia's away trend of few goals to continue.
