Huracan vs San Lorenzo
Huracan secured a hard-fought but well-deserved victory last Sunday, defeating Union Santa Fe 1-0 at home thanks to a penalty converted by Matko Miljevic in the 50th minute. With this result, El Globo extended their unbeaten streak in the league to three matches (two wins and one draw), reaching nine points and climbing into the final playoff spot in Group B, ahead of Barracas Central on goal difference. Additionally, Huracán remain unbeaten in their last ten home matches, with six wins and four draws.
San Lorenzo continue to improve with each match: last Monday, the team secured a valuable 1-0 victory over Instituto away from home, thanks to Andrés Vombergar’s goal late in the first half. With this result, El Ciclón became one of the leaders of Group B with 14 points, sharing the top spot with Rosario Central after recording four wins and two draws in six rounds. As visitors, San Lorenzo won two and drew one so far in the Torneo Apertura. Iker Muniain remains sidelined due to a muscle injury.
Big derby and definitely the game neither wants to lose in the season. San Lorenzo usually dominates this derby as they have a 40 games on the historical H2H, and they arrive in solid shape undefeated so far this year and with only one goal conceded in 9 games including the summer friendlies, so I’ll trust them not to lose here.
