Instituto Cordoba
Instituto's recent five‑game run reads D-W-L-W-W, highlighted by a 2‑0 away win over Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto and a 2‑1 home victory against Platense. Those two wins showcase a solid attacking output, supporting a home win scenario.
Gimnasia M.
Gimnasia's five‑game stretch is L-W-W-L-W, featuring a 2‑1 home win over Defensa Y Justicia and a 2‑0 home triumph versus Union Santa Fe, but both successes came at home while their away form remains poor, limiting their threat in this fixture.

In the last five meetings, Gimnasia have won three (including 1‑0 in 2026 and 2‑0 in 2022), while Instituto managed a single 1‑1 draw in 2019, suggesting a slight historical edge for Gimnasia but not enough to outweigh the current xG advantage for Instituto.
