Defensa Y Justicia
Defensa Y Justicia’s recent run (WWLWD) includes a 2‑1 away win over Belgrano Cordoba and a 1‑0 home victory against Platense, showing they can find the net both on the road and at home. Their only slip was a 0‑1 loss to Lanus, but three wins in five matches signal strong form that supports a home win.
San Lorenzo
San Lorenzo’s DLWDL run features a 1‑0 home win over Talleres Cordoba but also a 0‑2 home loss to Boca Juniors and a 0‑1 away defeat to Instituto Cordoba, highlighting inconsistency and limited scoring. With just one win in five, the visitors lack the firepower needed to overturn Justicia’s advantage.

In the last five meetings, Defensa Y Justicia have won three (5‑2, 2‑0, 1‑0), drawn once (0‑0) and lost once (0‑1), indicating a clear historical edge for the hosts.
