Atletico Platense vs Godoy Cruz – Atletico Platense will face Godoy Cruz at Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López in the first round of Liga Profesional on Saturday.
Atletico Platense has been on the decline recently, losing their most recent game in the Copa Argentina against Belgrano by a score of 2-1 on penalties. That defeat came after a 1-2 defeat to River Plate in the Copa de la Liga Profesional. The hosts have not been very impressive in these events and will need to raise their game once the league gets underway.
The hosts finished the previous season in 18th place with 31 points. Only 7 of those 25 matchups resulted in a win, with the remaining eight games ending in a loss. They’ve also been scored on in each of their past six games, allowing 10 goals in the process, indicating a defensive weakness.
Godoy Cruz, on the other hand, is coming off a 2-0 home win over Tristan Suarez in the Copa Argentina Round of 32. They finished the previous season in 17th place, with 31 points. They won eight of the 25 games they played, while losing ten of them.
Godoy Cruz will be trying to rebound after a 1-3 loss in their previous Copa de la Liga Profesional match against Barracas Central. Favio Orsi’s team had reason to celebrate after scoring seven goals in their last six games, giving them a goal per game average of 1.17.
Only one of the five head-to-head meetings between the two sides resulted in a win, with three other meetings ending in a draw. Both sides have scored in each of their last five head-to-heads. They last met in the Liga Profesional, where both teams were held to a 2-2 draw.
