Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy
- Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy lead Primera Nacional 2026 with 22 points from 10 matches (W7, D1, L2).
- They have won all 5 home games so far in the league, averaging 2.60 goals per home game.
- Their coach Hernan Pellerano has done a superb job since his appointment in November 2025, instilling a clear identity and structure on the squad.
- His side are a well-disciplined unit, capable of playing in a compact, controlled manner, making them resilient and difficult to break down.
Deportivo Maipu
- CD Maipu are a team that have had to make do with a more reactive style of play, reacting to the game and trying to make adjustments as it progresses.
- This season they have tried to be more urgent in the second half, but have not found the right balance since the departure of their previous coach.
- Mariano Raul Echeverria has had a hard task getting his side back on track, and the team have struggled to find their feet, sitting in 25th place after 10 matches.
- Deportivo Maipu are yet to win away from home in this league season, with 2 draws and 3 losses from their 5 fixtures, and they have scored just 5 goals on the road.
Head-to-Head
Maipu won 2 of their last 5 matches, drew 1 and lost the other 2, and they did beat Gimnasia Jujuy 2-0 in this fixture in the 2024 Primera Nacional, but their away record against them is poor, as they have never won away against them in 2 visits.
Betting Insights
- The hosts are by far the stronger side, so odds of 1.8 for a home win look fair.
- Other market highlights: Over 2.5 goals (2.49) and Both Teams to Score - Yes (2.28).
Prediction
- I expect Gimnasia to continue their 100% home win record and take the 3 points.
- Both teams should be able to score at least once, as the clash of styles suggests an open game.
