Ah, here we are. A classic matchup, San Lorenzo vs Platense. Let's peel back the layers of this onion, shall we? Between the pipes, San Lorenzo stands with Orlando Gill, who's been holding a solid line with a 7.15 rating. Platense relies on their netminder, Juan Cozzani, who's outperformed his counterpart with a 7.45 rating.
In terms of on-field artillery, San Lorenzo brings some heat with Andrés Vombergar, who's popped in 2 goals and maintained stellar passing accuracy, along with the likes of Gastón Hernández and Iker Muniain. Platense counters with its own armament, boasting Ignacio Vazquez and Vicente Taborda who, despite a shortage of goals, seem to maintain a good handle on the ball. Don't forget about Guido Mainero, who's been a bit more trigger-happy with a total of 3 shots on goal.
When it comes to past encounters, San Lorenzo has had Platense’s number, triumphing twice in the 2024-2025 season. A look at their Regular Season Records shows that San Lorenzo has a slightly more favorable win-loss ratio.
Platense has shown some chutzpah of late, dancing at par with big players like Racing Club and River Plate. San Lorenzo, on the other hand, seems to be sharing the spoils a bit too much, if you ask me, with 2 draws in their 5 most recent matches.
So, analyzing all these statistics with the delicious complexity of a 42-layer lasagna... taking into account the goalkeepers, top players, past face-offs, regular season records, and recent results...
