My Prediction
Defensa y Justicia by 2And so we face off with Defensa y Justicia going head-to-head with Aldosivi in a Liga Profesional showdown. And if you're asking for predictions, you've come to the right obnoxious commentator, my friend!
Look, goalkeepers in this game, they are fundamental. You've got Jorge Carranza guarding the net for Aldosivi with a 7.10 rating and 1 save, but then there's Enrique Bologna over at Defensa y Justicia, whose season has seen a rating of 7.40 with 2 saves. Bologna is a wall, folks, but don't quote me on that, or actually do.
As for the guys on the field, Aldosivi rolls out a slice of its fleet, Ignacio Guerrico, Tiago Serrago and Justo Giani - all showing a decent rating, but those boys need to work on their shooting. Goalless, but who cares right? Maybe Aldosivi doesn't believe in the whole 'score goals to win matches' philosophy.
Over on Defensa y Justicia, we've got Damián Fernández, Ezequiel Cannavo and Alexis Soto. Now Fernandez, oh boy, this lad has been terrific. What's that? No goals? Interesting… It's surprising to see a top-rated player without a single notch in the goal column, but then again, with an 87.2 accurate pass% maybe he's just more into assisting.
Now to the history books. The last time these two met on the field, Defensa y Justicia handed Aldosivi a timid performance to remember, a daunting 5 to nil scoreline. History might be just that, but old scares can last.
Regular season records are fairly even with Aldosivi sitting on 4-3-9 while DyJ is at 5-4-7. It's like comparing apples and slightly different apples. Convincing? Not really.
Looking at the recent performance, Aldosivi seems to have turned a corner with an impressive 3 goal show against San Martín de San Juan, whilst Defensa y Justicia has been content with popcorn draws and narrow losses. I suppose they enjoy the thrill of not winning.
Put all these ingredients in the pot and stir it up, and what do you get? A dyed-in-the-wool obnoxious sports commentator's view.
