Platense vs Gimnasia – Platense and Gimnasia will go head-to-head at the Estadio Ciudad de Vicente Lopez on Thursday in the Argentine Primera Division’s second phase of the season. The hosts are top of the table after winning both of their opening two games, while their guests are only two points worse off after claiming their first victory of the second phase last time.
Although they ended second from bottom in their group with only two victories and 10 points after 14 fights, Platense had to endure an uninspiring start to the new Argentinian top-fight season. However, they have started the main season in a significantly more positive fashion, winning both of their first two league games and climbing to the top of the division. At home against Godoy Cruz, Omar De Felippe’s team was victorious owing to Mauro Zarate’s 84th-minute penalty, which came after Gonzalo Bergessio had tied the game with a penalty of his own.
Platense vs Gimnasia – Betting Analysis
Last Sunday, the Calamares went on the road to face Velez Sarafield and came away with a 1-0 victory thanks to Ivan Gomez’s 74th-minute goal. De Felippe’s players are now on a high following a good start, and they hope to continue their spotless record in the Argentinian first division with another victory. They face a Gimnasia team that finished just one point behind fourth place in their group in the first phase of the competition and will be happy with their start. Nestor Gorosito’s squad travelled to Estudiantes to begin their major season, and they came away with a point thanks to an equaliser from Cristian Tarragona in the second half.
It was only a matter of time before El Lobo recorded their first win of the season against Patronato on Friday. First-half goals from Johan Carbonero and a 75th-minute penalty from Tarragona ensured that the Catalans walked away with all three points. Going forward, Gorosito’s players will want to build on their early success and consolidate their position atop Argentina’s Primera Division. As a result of their great start, we expect Platense to build on that confidence with a third straight league win at home.
