National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Sarmiento or Flandria that keep their silverware dream alive.
It's no vacation for neither Sarmiento nor Flandria as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Sarmiento form and stats
Last season their Copa Argentina adventure ended in the 8th finals.Sarmiento played out a slightly shocking defeat 0-7 against River Plate in their previous game, also played at home. Sarmiento were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Ayala had a busy but productive day in the River Plate match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented. Defender Rasmussen got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 6.64/10. Rasmussen won 2 of 2 duels.
Preceding that game was the away draw at Argentinos Juniors that finished 0-0.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Sarmiento matches with similar probabilities have ended with three wins, three draws and zero defeats (from six games).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Sarmiento as they are travelling to their away game against Talleres Cordoba in the Superliga. That match is three days after this one.
Flandria form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Flandria so far with only 2 points returning home. The records show 0-2-4 (win-draw-lose).
Flandria might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. All Boys proved too strong as Flandria slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Carlos V.
Prior to that match, the Flandria manager Montenegro faced defeat when travelling to Gimnasia Mendoza and losing 1-2.Flandria have another game away from home in just four nights, a Primera B Nacional match vs Club Atletico Guemes. A grim diary for the guests!
The attacking power of Flandria when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Sarmiento four wins, four draws and Flandria two victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.Top Goalscorers
