Velez Sarsfield vs Lanus Prediction & Betting Tips (20 November)

In general, a visit from Lanus has proven to be very beneficial in recent times, with 17 of the last 20 teams to entertain them claiming maximum points. Add to that the fact that Velez Sarsfield have enjoyed 15 wins in 20 home games at this level of late, and it is hard to see anything other than a home success in this meeting between high-fliers and strugglers.

Over the course of their most recent 19 top-flight home games, Velez Sarsfield have been involved in 14 encounters in which under 2.5 goals have been scored, including each of the last four.
