Sarmiento form and stats

Sarmiento have collected 10 points from their Superliga home games so far after 3-1-1.

A strong away win for Sarmiento against River Plate the last match, as Andueza and Mainero were on target. Mainero (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.43/10. Mainero scored one goal, hit the woodwork once, served one assist and hit one key pass.

Ahead of that match, Sarmiento lost 1-3 at home to Colon.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Sarmiento have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 9 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 0 and lost 5.

A decent goal production from Sarmiento in their home games so far, with 8 goals from 5 league matches.

Lanús form and stats

There's been little loot from Lanús's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 6 away games in the Superliga. Lanús only have 0 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw. Lanús has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Lanús have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 196 minutes ago. Ortellado was the goal scorer.

Lanús's previous game was their home loss versus Aldosivi (0-1). Lanús were so close to getting something from the game against Aldosivi, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime. Pérez, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.65. Pérez won 11 of 13 duels.

A 0-1 defeat away at Gimnasia La Plata before that.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 10 similar matches played by Lanús in our archives, and the results are: 2 wins for Lanús, 2 draws and 6 defeats.

Lanús are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 3 goals from 6 away games. Lanús struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 10 goals conceded from these games.

Head 2 Head

Statistics for the prior four meetings involving these two sides are: one win for Sarmiento, one draw and two wins for Lanús. Over 2,5 goals: two times; under 2,5 goals: two games.
