Match description

Vélez Sarsfield is the favorite: away they average 1.17 goals scored and concede only 0.5 per match; they keep a clean sheet in 50% of away games and have yet to lose on the road. Gimnasia Mendoza score only 0.6 goals at home on average and concede 1.0 per match, winning just 20% of home fixtures and losing 60%. The home side generate higher xG at home (xG 1.54 vs guests' xG 1.27) and more shots (14 vs 10.5) with 4 on target versus Vélez's 3.67, but their conversion rate is only 4% compared to the visitors' 11%, explaining the gap between xG and actual goals. In the last 5 matches Gimnasia has not won any (0 wins, 0.6 points per game), while Vélez has 2 wins and 1.6 points per game. Considering Vélez's defensive stability away, the fact that the visitors have 0% matches without scoring, and the hosts' low finishing, I predict a Vélez Sarsfield victory.
