Banfield take on the visitors Arsenal Sarandi at “Estadio Florencio Sola” in the gameweek five of the Argentine Superliga. The match will be played on Tuesday, October 3rd.
Banfield entered the season with 2:1 win over Belgrano in the Argentine Superliga and 4:2 victory over Atl. Rafaela in the Copa Argentina. The club suffered its first defeat in the second matchday already, having been beaten 1:3 by River Plate but then managed to gain 1:0 triumph over Racing Club with the consequent thrashing win vs. Rosario Central 4:0 in the Superliga. After that Banfield lost 1:2 to Godoy Cruz in the Copa Argentina. The team gained 13 victories in 15 previous home clashes. Dario Cvitanich looks very good in this season so far as he has already scored four goals. Many football admirers may remember him by his performing in the French club Nice.

Arsenal Sarandi have lost all four encounters at the start of the season and currently settle on the last place in the elite division table with zero points earned. The club was broken 1:2 by Estudiantes L.P. in the first gameweek recording three further defeats with the same 0:1 scoreline vs. Colon Santa FE, San Lorenzo and Temperley. The team managed to gain only four triumphs out of 16 recent matches on the road. So far the start of the new season can be definitely named a complete failure for Arsenal Sarandi. The forthcoming away clash is also not much promising for the side. The team’s midfielder Ivan Bella and defender Marcos Curado won’t appear in the matchup.
Banfield are the obvious favourites in this fight. Even though the side has never defeated Arsenal Sarandi at its own turf two times in a row before, but when there’s a will there’s a way. The hosts stay in much better form now than their opponent, therefore, I expect Banfield to extend their successful run at the home field while Arsenal Sarandi are not quite ready to battle with the stronger rivals.
Prediction for the match: Banfield to win.
