Betting Tips: Sarmiento vs Lanus
- Tip: Sarmiento +0.25 @ 1.91
Sarmiento’s Recent Performance
Sarmiento showed resilience last Sunday, earning a commendable 0-0 draw away at Godoy Cruz. Although they remain without a win in the Torneo Clausura, with two points collected so far, their form suggests they are difficult to beat. However, their five-game league run has been less impressive, highlighting four draws and one loss. At home, they have failed to secure a victory in their last six matches, with five draws and one loss, leaving the team hovering just above the relegation zone.
The upcoming match could bring a spark for Sarmiento as Lucas Pratto—a revered striker formerly with Boca and River—makes his debut. His presence may bolster their attacking prowess, and fans will hope for a more decisive offensive display.
Lanus’ Struggles
Lanus suffered another setback last Saturday, losing 1-0 at home to Rosario Central in a contentious encounter. The defeat leaves them pointless and goalless in the Torneo Clausura, and their overall form in recent weeks is concerning. With four consecutive league matches without a win—one draw followed by three losses—they are mere four points above the relegation zone. Their away form offers little encouragement, as Lanus have failed to win any of their past eight away league fixtures, managing only five draws and three losses.
To compound their difficulties, captain Carlos Izquierdoz is suspended and will miss this important showdown on Friday.
Why Choose Sarmiento?
Sarmiento may not be winning games, but they are proving tough to defeat, and the addition of Lucas Pratto could improve their ability to deliver results. In contrast, Lanus have yet to score or secure a point in the Torneo Clausura, and their inconsistent form makes it difficult to back them, particularly in away fixtures. Therefore, betting on Sarmiento’s handicap (+0.25) at odds of 1.91 appears to be the favorable choice.
