Sarmiento Preview – Can Sarmiento pull off upset?
It wasn’t the best of campaigns in the 1st phase of the Argentinian Liga Professional for Friday night’s hosts, Sarmiento, as the hosts finished second from bottom in Group B with just 12 points to their name after winning just two of their 13 matches played.
Sarmiento’s rare successes came in the shape of wins against Defensa y Justicia and Lanus, both of which were recorded on home turf at their Estadio Eva Perón de Junín, but these victories have been Sarmiento’s only highlights so far.
The bigger picture shows that Sarmiento have won just three of their last 12 matches at home in the domestic top flight while each of their previous two meetings against Estudiantes have ended in 1-0 defeats.
Estudiantes Preview – Can Estudiantes take advantage?
By contrast, Friday’s visitors, Estudiantes, enjoyed a far more successful campaign than their hosts in the 1st phase of the Argentinian Liga Professional as the visitors finished in 2nd place in Group A and just three points shy of the leaders, Colon, which saw Estudiantes progress through to the finals stage.
However, their journey in the knockout phase came to an abrupt end as they lost on penalties to Independiente but nevertheless, Estudiantes can take heart from what was a successful season overall.
With just one defeat out of their last six matches on their travels, Estudiantes look to possess more quality than their hosts and look set to get off to a good start in this 2nd phase of the season.
