San Martín de San Juan
- San Martín de San Juan are on a roll, having gone undefeated in their last 5 games with 4 wins and 1 draw.
- El Santo sit 13th in the Primera Nacional 2026 with 41 points from 27 games, while El Lechero are third with 52 points from 28, so it is a mid-table clash on paper.
- José María Martínez's side are a high pressing, fast-paced unit that like to control the game and will try to get on top of Schiapparelli's men from the off.
Tristán Suárez
But Schiapparelli has set up his side to be pragmatic and ready to counterattack, so this game looks like a tactical chess match that could get cagey, with El Lechero pressing and probing while El Santo wait to spring the counter.
Key Players
- Maximiliano Alvarez, with 6 in 23, is El Lechero's top scorer and, although a decent finisher, he is no Funez as a focal point.
- Schiapparelli, who took charge on 15 April 2026, has an experienced forward and penalty box focal point in Nazareno Funez, who has 9 goals in 24 appearances in the Primera Nacional 2026.
Betting Insights
- However, Tristán Suárez are a solid away side in Primera Nacional 2026, having won 6, drawn 5 and lost 3 from 14 away fixtures, conceding only 8 goals.
- That's not a great omen for the home side, who have scored 18 goals in their 13 home Primera Nacional 2026 matches (average 1.38).
- Under 2.5 goals is the sharper wager at 1.38, but we like the home edge to help San Martín over the line here.
Prediction
San Martín are hot right now and have a home advantage, so we're taking them to win this tight game.
