Estudiantes and Godoy Cruz are set to face off in the Argentine Primera Division at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi.
Both teams are eager to secure a win in this crucial match.
Team Form
Estudiantes
Estudiantes have had a mixed run of form recently.
Despite starting the new Primera Division campaign with a perfect record, they faced setbacks in their last two games.
A 2-1 loss to Lanus ended their winning streak, and they suffered a 4-3 defeat to Huachipato in the Copa Libertadores, resulting in their elimination from the tournament.
However, Estudiantes have a strong home record and have won their last three league meetings against Godoy Cruz, scoring six goals and keeping two clean sheets.
Godoy Cruz
Godoy Cruz’s form has been inconsistent.
They secured a 4-0 victory over third-division side El Porvenir in the Copa Argentina, which was a much-needed morale boost after failing to win any of their previous four matches.
Their recent Primera Division performances have included a 1-0 loss to Barracas Central and a goalless draw with Independiente Rivadavia.

Additionally, Facundo Altamira and Braian Salvareschi are sidelined with injuries.
