Godoy Cruz looking likely
Godoy Cruz come into Saturday's game looking the more likely winner of the two sides as they sit 10th in Primera Nacional 2026 with 34 points from 22 games, whereas CA Chaco For Ever are 33rd in the table with 22 points from 22 fixtures.
Pablo De Muner has his team set up to play on the front foot, preferring to dominate the ball and play in a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 formation with plenty of pressure on the opponents' goal and the full-backs overlapping on occasion. They have scored 18 times in 11 home games in Primera Nacional 2026, so they have enough to unlock the lower sides that play with a low block.
Martin Pino is Godoy Cruz's most dangerous player with 8 goals in 22 appearances in Primera Nacional 2026 – a solid return. He's the penalty taker and can be trusted to find the net.
Chaco For Ever are in form
Recent form
CA Chaco For Ever arrive at Estadio Malvinas Argentinas in equally good shape, having won 4 and drawn 1 of their last 5 fixtures to record a 3-game winning streak.
Style and player to watch
Daniel Cravero has set up his team to be compact and pragmatic, sitting in a low-to-mid block and looking to counterattack at pace to nick a goal. Matias Romero has 5 goals in 19 games for them and has 4 in the last 5 matches, so he's on a hot streak.
It’s a matchup of styles
The head-to-head in Primera Nacional 2026 finished 1-1 at Chaco's home, and this looks another tight, frustrating game already. Godoy Cruz should have far more of the ball, but Chaco For Ever will look to stifle them and counterattack fast. The odds are stacked in Godoy Cruz' favour, with them listed as 1.6 favourites ahead of the draw at 3.5 and Chaco For Ever at 5.5, so it's worth having a bet on under 2.5 goals at 1.55 and Both Teams To Score – No at 1.55 to fit the narrative of a tight game.
Godoy Cruz have enough momentum and goals to edge it, but it won't be a walk in the park.
