CA Atlanta
CA Atlanta are 3rd in Primera Nacional 2026 on 36 points from 20 games .
Almagro
Almagro are 22nd on 25 points from 20 matches .
Head-to-Head
They beat Atlanta 2-0 at home before edging Atlético Rafaela 1-0 , but Carlos Mayor's men were then well beaten 3-0 by San Martín de Tucumán on the road.
Odds
CA Atlanta will go into Monday's Primera Nacional 2026 match as betting favorites at 1.72 , with Almagro the underdogs at 5.27 and the tie priced at 3.3 .
Form
- Atlanta are certainly the better team in the Argentine second tier and their home record of seven wins, two draws and two defeats from 11 outings is a benchmark that suggests a win is likely on Monday.
- Almagro are much more positive on paper than Atlanta's away record suggests, having won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five matches.
Key Players
- Mayor has brought structure and solidity to Almagro with his compact, transition-based system that always has the central positions covered and his team can spring danger on the counterpunch.
- Atlanta, on the other hand, are a possession-based team with Cristian Pellerano getting the best out of a well-trained, adaptable group.
- Alejandro Quintana (5 goals in 20 Primera Nacional 2026 matches) is their leading scorer and provides a target and finishers for Atlanta, while Mateo Benegas (5 goals in 19 Primera Nacional 2026 appearances) is the biggest threat for Almagro, who are more likely to hit on the break.
Prediction
Atlanta are the better side and their win record at home is the best reason to back them, but Almagro's win in the reverse fixture keeps this from becoming a 'must win' and we think a narrow home win is the likeliest outcome.
