Gimnasia Mendoza vs Estudiantes Rio Cuarto Prediction & Betting Tips (25 August)

Gimnasia Mendoza boast an impressive recent home record at the top table of the Primera Nacional, securing 13 victories in 17 attempts, one of which was a success against these opponents back this year. Speaking of Estudiantes Rio Cuarto, they have struggled massively on the road of late, returning with zero points from 13 of their last 17 trips in the Primera Nacional.

Gimnasia Mendoza have become renowned for keeping things tight on home soil, with 17 of their previous 20 top-flight fixtures, including nine in a row of late, serving up under 2.5 goals. A thriller would therefore seem unlikely against most opponents, but particularly against a Estudiantes Rio Cuarto side that has been involved in 13 such low-scoring encounters across their last 17 trips.

Over the course of their last 15 Primera Nacional matches, Estudiantes Rio Cuarto have been involved in just a couple of contests in which both teams have found the net, so this is a pretty unusual occurrence. Not only that, but at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from eight of the previous 13 top-flight fixtures involving Gimnasia Mendoza.
