Sarmiento, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to Platense will not have sat easily with the Sarmiento squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. During that encounter they had 42% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 8 shots on goal.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 4 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 7 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and this season they have failed to score in 13 of their 24 games.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
Velez Sarsfield, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Godoy Cruz will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Vélez Sarsfield. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Godoy Cruz's tally of 4 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 5 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
In each of the previous 4 matches against El Fortín, Sarmiento have let in at least one goal.
In the last 4 league matches against Vélez, Sarmiento have failed to record a victory.
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.
Sebastián Méndez has a number of injury concerns in his Vélez squad to contend with: Santiago Cáseres (Ankle), Diego Godín (Muscle) and Gastón Gómez (Elbow)
