Godoy Cruz vs Defensores Unidos Prediction: Godoy Cruz are favorite in this match

In the 1/32 finals of Copa Argentina Godoy Cruz and Defensores Unidos will face each other on neutral location, in Cordoba in stadium “Estadio Julio Cesar Villagra”. Even though both teams are in good form, Godoy Cruz are favorites mostly because of better individual quality in the team, especially in the attack. In the last match in the league Godoy Cruz managed to win against Boca Juniors 4:0 and this will certainly encourage them to go for a win in this match. Defensores Unidos also won in their last match, but this team simply isn’t confident enough to go against Godoy Cruz who are in great momentum.

Godoy Cruz are unstoppable this season on home ground. In this match they are hosts, but this match is played on neutral ground so we will see if this will affect them a lot. In the last match, they were superior against the great Boca Juniors and they will want to continue in that spirit. They are 9th in the league with 9 wins, 5 draws, and 7 defeats. In the last 5 matches, they have 3 wins and 2 defeats, both of them on away matches.

Defensores Unidos are playing in Argentinian Primera National, and currently are in 3rd place with 9 wins, 7 draws, and 5 defeats. Their main problem is playing away, they have only 1 win so far as visitors, which will be a problem in this match even though it will be played in a neutral location. Defensores Unidos are also in good form recently, and in the last 5 matches, they have 3 wins, a draw, and a defeat.

We can expect an interesting match in which the teams will want to tactically outplay the opponent. They haven’t played many times against each other, their last match was in 2018 also in Copa Argentina and ended 1:1, Defensores Unidos won after penalties. I am backing Godoy Cruz to win in this match in regular time, possibly with over 2.5 goals. They are better team they play attacking football and recently their attackers are in good form. Defensores Unidos are playing on little goals but they also struggle in the defense, especially when they are not playing on home stadium.
