Patronato take on the visitors Independiente in the round 5 match of Argentinian Liga Profesional. The match will be played on Monday, June 27th at Estadio Presbítero Bartolomé Grella (Paraná).
Patronato are trying to gain momentum. Lately, they haven’t been doing very well. Last year's in Liga Profesional brought only 23rd place - very close to the bottom of the championship standings. In Copa Diego Maradona, they gained only 10 points in 14 matches, showing the absolutely worst result among all participants in this tournament. And it's only now that something is starting to come out. Santo got off to a relatively good start in the new season: a draw with Velez Sarsfield and even a victory over Aldosivi. And this week it turned out to pass Colon in the cup. With the latter, however, it turned out to beat only in penalty shootout. In addition, all these meetings were "home" for the team. So far, the “bagels” struggle in matches on the road: 0-2 with Gimnasia (La Plata) and 1-3 with Sarmiento.

Independiente are now among the mid-table teams of Argentine football. Last year's Primera ended with the 9th place. But in Copa Diego Maradona, they didn’t manage to show anything: the Red Devils collected only 16 points in 14 matches, and closed only the top ten in their group - a frankly mediocre result. In the Copa Sudamericana, despite 4 victories, the Argentines in the group could only take 2nd place in the quartet and did not reach the playoffs of the tournament. Against this background, it turned out to show quite promising to start the national championship. Both home matches, against Talleres and Estudiantes, were won. At the same time, they lost the advantage over San Lorenzo on the road and lost to Argentinos Juniors because of a goal in the 2nd half. However, on the road in the last match, in the cup, they managed to win against Atlético Tucuman - it seems that Eduardo Dominguez and his staff are still able to ensure the gradual progress of their wards.
For all the time, and this is 10th head-to-head match, Patronato won only once, in 2019. At the same time, Independiente has 7 wins, including in both meetings of the last calendar year. Bookmakers consider the odds of the pair to be approximately equal. But still, "Independiente" has a number of serious trump cards. So we expect the victory of the visitors with a “zero” handicap.
Prediction for the match: Independiente to win with 0.0 handicap.
