Aldosivi take on the visitors San Martin SJ in the round 1/32-final match of Copa Argentina. The match will be played on Wednesday, June 14th.
Aldosivi proved to be insufficiently competitive for the Primera Division. "The Sharks" have managed to reach the top division of the country several times in recent years. However, they have struggled to establish themselves for long periods. In the previous cycle, they finished in 28th place, the last position, resulting in relegation. Usually, teams like this become leaders at the new level and compete for a return to the top division. If there is a battle in the summer, it will likely be to avoid dropping even further. In such circumstances, there may be conflicting attitudes towards the cup: on the one hand, it provides an opportunity to redeem themselves for failures, but on the other hand, is it worth expending energy?

San Martin are already considered a typical mid-table team in the second division. "Los Verdinegros" have ascended to the Primera Division several times. In fact, in 2014, they managed to stay at a higher level for 5 years, until 2019, after winning the promotion playoffs. However, their performance in Primera B has been quite modest. For example, in the previous cycle, they finished only in 13th place in their group. However, they are currently making a significant leap forward. They have already surpassed the 30-point mark, allowing them to confidently compete among the leaders and prepare for the playoffs. On the other hand, they have had some setbacks recently, especially in away matches. They were only able to secure a draw, 1-1, against Alvarado at home. Is it worth exerting effort in the cup competition when the final is still a long way off?
Overall, the clubs have shown relatively equal statistics. However, San Martin has only won once in their last 5 matches. The hosts are considered the favorites, but they are not particularly interested in the tournament either. Expect a low-scoring match, with a total of fewer than 3.0 goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
