Temperley
- Temperley have drawn their last five games and are unbeaten in their last 5 (D5).
- El Celeste are 15th in the standings with 16 points from 11 games while El Cruzado are 27th with 12 points from the same number of matches.
- Temperley have 16 points from 11 Primera Nacional 2026 matches so far, and have drawn both of their previous two at home.
- El Celeste have conceded only four goals in four home games, which tells you what Domingo’s tactical blueprint is all about.
- The home side will line up in either a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 and be compact and hard to break down.
- Their possession is often limited, but they are a threat on counterattack with a good shape and players who can transition from defence to attack quickly.
CD Maipu
- Maipu have not won any of their 6 Primera Nacional 2026 away games (D3, L3).
- Mariano Raul Echeverria took over at Maipu in April 2026 and has been working on making the club more pragmatic and adaptable to different situations.
- A 0-0 away draw with Patronato de Parana was followed by a 1-0 home win over Almagro and 1-1 draw away to Gimnasia Jujuy in their most recent three games.
- Echeverria will have his side set up to play direct and attack with wingers while also making sure they press well in midfield to frustrate the hosts.
- Maipu have failed to win any of their six away games and it is likely that Echeverria will want to end that run here by locking up the defence.
Key Players
- CD Maipu’s Juan Gobetto has 6 goals in 10 Primera Nacional 2026 appearances (3 goals in last 5).
- Fernando Brandan, who has two goals in eight Primera Nacional 2026 games, is the most likely to pop up with a goal when the team is out of possession.
Betting Insights
- Temperley are likely to edge the win in front of their home fans, but our main play is for both teams to get on the board and over 2.5 goals in the match.
- El Cruzado have conceded 10 goals in six away Primera Nacional 2026 matches, an average of 1.67 per game, and have the goal-getter to cause El Celeste problems in Juan Gobetto.
Prediction
However, because of the way both teams are likely to set up, this one is likely to be open with some space for the respective attacking players to play in.
