Gimnasia L.P. take on the visitors Banfield at “Estadio Juan Carmelo Zerillo” in the round 27 of the Argentine Primera Division. The game will be played in La Plata on Sunday, June 4th.
Gimnasia L.P. demonstrated suitable results at the beginning of 2017, however, the team collapsed in recent matches getting only one victory in seven clashes alongside with five losses and one draw. As a result, the side slid down to the mid-table sitting on the 15th place of the standings with 37 points taken and 22-21 goal difference. At their home ground Gimnasia L.P. conducted 13 encounters resulting in 19 points earned, 11 goals for and 12 goals against. Still the side was defeated in its last back-to-back home matches: vs. San Lorenzo 0:1 and vs. River Plate 0:3.

On the contrary, Banfield found their football in recent clashes: the team won six out of seven last games. That spurt allowed Julio Cesar Falcioni’s side to share the third-fourth positions in the Primera Division table with Newells Old Boys having got 48 points taken with 36-29 goal difference being five points below the leader. Despite its successful performance in this season, “El Taladro” demonstrates mediocre results on the road recording 16 points gained, 14 goals for and 20 goals against in 13 away encounters. Moreover, the team lost four out of five last clashes at away turfs.
Banfield won three recent head-to-heads against Gimnasia L.P.: 1:0, 2:0 and 4:1. In general, this season the visitors look stronger than the hosts, nevertheless, they show disappointing results on the road. Meanwhile, Gimnasia L.P. stay unconvincing both at the home ground and at away fields. I believe that the visiting team may count at least for a draw in the forthcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Banfield to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
