Gimnasia y Esgrima, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-0 away defeat by Godoy Cruz will have left the Gimnasia y Esgrima squad feeling a little deflated. They came away from that fixture with 48% of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Godoy Cruz managed 18 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Sebastián Romero will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 7 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They have had a good run of form at The Estadio Juan Carmelo Zerillo recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 3 wins along the way.
Sarmiento, Recent FormWith a 0-0 draw in their last match against Huracán, Sarmiento had to settle for a share of the points. In that game they had 27% possession and managed 13 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Huracán who had 20 attempts and 5 on target.
6 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 3 goals in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets.
This has been a difficult period for the team in terms of away form, with 3 defeats and just 2 victories in their last 6 matches away from home.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Sarmiento, Javier Toledo will be looking to add more goals against Gimnasia y Esgrima in this match.
The last time these two sides met, it wasn't one to remember, finishing without a goal and both sides taking just a point for their efforts.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, Gimnasia have been unable to break through El Verde's defence and find the back of the net.
Gimnasia manager Sebastián Romero has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Lautaro Chávez (Cruciate ligament), Benjamín Domínguez (Sprained ankle), Germán Guiffrey (Shoulder) and Matías Miranda (Cruciate ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Yair Arismendi (Cruciate ligament) and Josè Mauri (Cruciate ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Israel Damonte will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
