Why it might land
  • Velez Sarsfield bring an unbeaten five match run into this fixture featuring two solid wins and three draws to keep their momentum steady.
  • The bookmakers price Velez Sarsfield at 1.77 which gives us a fair return on a home side showing much more consistency than their opponents.
  • Gimnasia arrive here after picking up two defeats in their last five matches which shows they can struggle heavily on the road.
Why it might not
  • Velez Sarsfield have drawn three of their last five matches which suggests they sometimes struggle to turn good pressure into a winning goal.
  • Gimnasia have managed two recent wins in their last five outings and could easily frustrate the hosts if they defend deep.

The market makes Vélez Sarsfield the side to beat here at 53%, which gives this game a clear shape before a ball is kicked. Our model lands on Vélez Sarsfield, and it backs that with a 2 units stake. Velez Sarsfield should use their steady run of form at home to break down Gimnasia and claim the three points at the Jose Amalfitani.

Form and momentum

Vélez Sarsfield come in poor, winning 29% of 7 on record. 2 of their 3 home games went their way, and the numbers point to a fairly even scoring record. Right now they are on 1 win in a row.

Gimnasia (Mendoza) come in patchy, winning 43% of 7 on record. 2 of their 4 away games went their way, and the numbers point to a side that scores freely. Right now they are on 1 draw in a row.

The price and the value

The prices turn into 53% for VEL, 27% for the draw and 21% for GMZ once the bookmaker margin is stripped out. That is a firm lean toward Vélez Sarsfield, so the question is whether the form backs the price or quietly argues against it. Our call sits at 1.77, and we only stake it because the reasons for it outweigh the reasons against.
