Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Excursionistas & Almagro face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Copa Argentina. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Excursionistas form and stats
29 points is a decent return from 14 Primera C games here at Estadio Francisco Urbano for Excursionistas. The data says 9 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses.
Excursionistas's last game was hosting Puerto Nuevo and winning 2-1.
Before that, Excursionistas played out a Primera C draw 0-0 when visiting Midland.The manager Rivera will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Yupanqui in only two days.
A decent goal production from Excursionistas in their home games so far, with 23 goals from 14 league matches. From these home matches, Excursionistas have conceded only 13 goals.
Almagro form and stats
Almagro played 0-0 against San Martin Tucuman in their previous match.
It was a Primera B Nacional defeat before that one as the away game against Nueva Chicago wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Almagro manager Ruiz as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Temperley.
