Tactical and player notes
Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy have been rock-solid under Hernan Pellerano since November 2025. The coach has built a strong team around a disciplined 4-4-2 shape and they win games with their vertical transitions, which are becoming their calling card.
Octavio Bianchi has hit 4 goals in Gimnasia's last 5 Primera Nacional 2026 outings, so he's the hot hand right now, but Cristian Menendez is their leader in the box, notching 5 Primera Nacional 2026 goals in 16 appearances.
Pablo Guinanzu has tried to make Guemes a more aggressive, direct team since taking charge in May 2026, but the side win the ball high up the field and look to break quickly, which could leave them vulnerable if Gimnasia can play through the first press. Juan Sotelo leads Guemes' scoring charts in Primera Nacional 2026 with 6 goals in 14 matches, so he is their best bet to cause Gimnasia problems up front.
Reason for Betting Tips
The bookmakers make Gimnasia the clear favorites at 1.49, with Guemes a big long shot at 6.12 and the draw at 3.78. Gimnasia are in form, Guemes are in a slump, and the home-field advantage swings the tie in favor of Gimnasia. However, the draw might be of most value in this clash, as Guemes' urgency and direct style should make this a little more challenging than the markets suggest.
Gimnasia have been so effective in Primera Nacional 2026 at home with 8 wins and 2 draws from 10 games, they should edge it, but Guemes' positive, direct approach should make this a battle.
Under 2.5 goals at 1.72 and Both Teams To Score – No at 1.67 both fit the script for a home-side in control, where the home team will be patient and eventually nick the win.
