Banfield (home)
- Banfield are a patient and structured team, organised by Pedro Troglio into a 4-4-2 formation that is all about controlling the pace of the game, staying compact and punishing the opposition on the counter or from set pieces.
- Banfield are ranked 23rd in the Liga Profesional - Apertura 2026 with seven points from seven games.
Aldosivi (away)
- Aldosivi have lost all three of their away games in the Liga Profesional - Apertura 2026, scoring just 0.33 goals per game on their travels.
- Meanwhile, Guillermo Farre has Aldosivi playing a more chaotic style of soccer, pressing high and hard in bursts before looking to transition into a fast-paced attack with directness or set pieces.
- Aldosivi sit just below Banfield, 29th with three points from six games.
Head-to-Head
Aldosivi have won both of the last two meetings between the two clubs in the Liga Profesional, including a 1-0 away win just three months ago.
Players to watch
- Mauro Mendez is their star man and is in fine form, scoring four goals in seven league games, with three of those coming in his last five appearances, and he represents their main attacking threat.
- Federico Acevedo leads their scoring charts with just one goal in six league appearances and Nicolas Zalazar is the best provider with one assist in five games.
