San Telmo vs Defensores Unidos Prediction & Betting Tips (23 September)

Defensores Unidos would love nothing better than to dent the promotion bid of their rivals, but a 15-game winless run on their second-tier travels, including five defeats on the bounce, suggests that such a result is likely to prove beyond them. As for San Telmo, they have enjoyed eight wins in their last nine matches in front of their own supporters at this level.

Defensores Unidos have not been the most entertaining of sides to watch recently, as seven of their previous ten matches in the Primera Nacional have served up no more than a couple of successful strikes. Under 2.5 goals has also been the order of the day in five consecutive San Telmo home games at this level, with the net bulging just four times across these contests.

It has been quite unusual to see both teams on target in recent San Telmo home matches, with this being the case in just six of their previous 19 games in the league. What’s more, Defensores Unidos have either failed to score or kept a clean sheet in each of their last four away matches at this level, so it would come as a surprise were the net to bulge at both ends here.
