In their last match, they lost in an away match against Newell’s Old Boys by (2-1), after in the previous match they tied (1-1) at home, in a match against Independiente. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium.

Their attack has scored regularly, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 10 of the last 11 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 21 matches in this competition, he never got the comeback in the 9 games in which he suffered the first goal. In the last 11 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (61’-75 ‘).
After arriving with another defeat, against Newell’s Old Boys, 2-1, it is clear that his time in the competition is not the best, because he does not win exactly six days ago for the Argentine championship. We remember that, acting in their domains, the Tiger, despite not losing four days ago, comes from three draws. In addition, the team in these conditions is leaving to desire, mainly offensively, because it scores on average 1 goal and suffers 1.27 goals per game. For this confrontation the technician should opt for the 4-4-2, looking for a solid defensive sector and organized attacks, in which the two most advanced players should be forwards C. Luna and F. González. In this team highlights the Brazilian Luis Menosi, with three goals scored within the competition.
Gimnasia L.P:
The away team is currently in the 22 th position of the league, with 22 points won, after 6 wins, 4 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against San Martín San Juan, by (3-0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Argentinos Juniors, by (1-3). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 away league matches Gimnasia La Plata has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 7 losses, so they have won 5 points out of 30 possible.
For this competition, they have not won any of the last 8 away matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half-time was the 0-0 (4 out of 10 matches). Defensive consistency has not been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 21 matches in this competition, he never got the comeback in the 10 games in which he suffered the first goal.
After arriving of three defeats followed by the championship, being the last against the Argentinos Juniors, by 1-3, the team, like its rival, is not well in the table, because it occupies only the twenty second position, while the Tigre is in the twenty-fourth position in the table. It is important to watch his campaign away from home, because in addition to having won only one game in these conditions, he does not win anything less than eight matches, as already mentioned above. We highlight his sectors, which leave much to be desired, as he scores on average only 0.64 goals and suffers 1.82 goals per game. For this game the coach must opt for 3-4-3, with the aim of giving greater emphasis to his midfield. We also emphasize F. Oreja and C. Colazo, those who act on the flanks. The main finalizer of the team is N. Colazo, with five goals scored in total.
PREDICTION: Tigre to win @ 1.98
