A victory to the home team is expected from this game if the league table is to be believed. The Sportivo Italiano regulars are hopeful that the mismatch between 3rd and General Lamadrid's 14th place in the table will be visible on the arena.

Insights:
  • Sportivo Italiano have the most scored goals in the first half (7) in Primera C
  • General Lamadrid have conceded at least twice as many corners as they have won away.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
