My Prediction
Talleres by 1Alright, let's jump into this match between Talleres and Gimnasia y Esgrima. The gloves are off! Or should I say, on? Because the keepers are a massive part of any match. Nelson Insfrán looks sturdy for Gimnasia y Esgrima with a 7.00 rating and 4 saves. However, Guido Herrera of Talleres has been a brick wall, saving more shots with a rating of 7.20.
Gimnasia y Esgrima fields some strong players with Pedro Silva leading the pack. His accurate pass percentage of 85.3% is impressive, followed closely by Rodrigo Castillo who has found the back of the net once this season. But don't sleep on Nicolás Garayalde, even without a goal under his belt, his pass accuracy stands at a robust 87.7%.
Turning the spotlight on Talleres, they've got their own arsenal. Rick is having a great run with a rating of 7.27, a goal and a pass accuracy of 75%. Juan Portillo, despite being goalless, is another star with his passes hitting the mark 90.6% of the time. Shows you don't need to score to be valuable.
The two have had close encounters in the past. The last two matches ended in a stalemate and a win for Talleres. Both teams have had a seesaw-like season. Gimnasia y Esgrima's record stands at 3-3-5, while Talleres seems to favor the draw with 1-6-4.
The recent matches don't paint a clear picture either. Gimnasia y Esgrima had a win, a draw, and a loss in their last three matches. Talleres, on the other hand, has quite a streak of draws at their back.
Considering all factors, it might be another close encounter, but I'd say Talleres holds a slight edge.
