Godoy Cruz vs Newells Old Boys Match Preview

Godoy Cruz welcomes Newell's Old Boys in Malvinas Argentinas for the 14th round of the Argentinian Liga Profesional.

Godoy Cruz has taken off in the last games and brings out a very good competitive side, that gets results and points to the team of Mendoza. In their most recent game won with the emphatic 1-4 away over Independiente. They are now in eighth place in the standings with 20 points, just three points below the top four.

On the positive side is the return of the fans at the stadiums of Argentina, quite hungry to watch football. More than 15,000 fans of Godoy Cruz are expected in tonight's game. Defender G. Ferrari returns from serving a one-match suspension and returns to the starting lineup.

Newell's Old Boys after their 1-2 victory over Lanus returned to negative results against Huracan, they were defeated by 0-1. Although they tried hard enough in the game they did not manage to get anything out of it. After 13 rounds played they have four wins, three draws, and six losses. The injured M. Rodríguez, J. Fernández, and P. Pérez, as well as Mr. Mansilla, who recently had surgery, are out of the squad.

Godoy in the last games showed that they are in a very good momentum and I expect that they will continue at the same pace. Newell's is not stable and will hardly be able to get anything from today's match. I'll pick the home win.
