CA Patronato
- CA Patronato sit 30th in Primera Nacional 2026 with 24 points from 24 games.
- CA Patronato arrive in mixed-to-poor form for the visit of Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy on Saturday, as Marcelo Candia's side have 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats from their last 5 Primera Nacional 2026 games.
- El Patrón, who will be looking to rebound from a 3-0 defeat away to Colón last time out, have a physical and direct style of play, but their lack of fluency in the final third has let them down over the course of the season.
Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy
Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy are 4th in Primera Nacional 2026 with 44 points from 25 matches.
Betting Insights
- Gimnasia Jujuy shade the odds at 2.75 ahead of Patronato at 2.7 and the draw at 2.9, but the style clash makes this a tricky game to predict as Patronato want to press higher and play on the front foot, while Gimnasia prefer a tight block and counterattacking bursts.
- Backing under 2.5 goals at 1.43 seems a better play here as this game could be a real scrap.
- The home team have been hard to beat at home in Primera Nacional 2026 with 3 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses, but they're also lacking the killer instinct in the attacking third to really finish off opponents.
Key Players
Hernán Pellerano sets up his side to be compact, disciplined and ready to spring into life, either on the counterattack or from set pieces, as Cristian Menéndez's 6 goals in 21 Primera Nacional 2026 appearances suggests.
Prediction
A tight matchup is expected, but with Walter Rueda having 5 goals in 23 Primera Nacional 2026 matches and 3 of Patronato's last 5 goals , back him to get on the scoresheet again.
