Godoy Cruz vs Mitre - a clash of tactical philosophies
Godoy Cruz:
Godoy Cruz currently sits 11th in the Primera Nacional 2026 standings after 15 games, having taken 22 points from a possible 45. They have won two, drawn one, and lost two of their last five league matches, a record which is a reasonable indication of their quality and consistency this season.
Pablo De Muner took charge of Godoy Cruz in May 2026 and has worked hard to make this squad more of a cohesive unit. They have moved away from the more erratic and unpredictable playing style that they displayed under his predecessor towards a more mature and controlled approach. De Muner likes his side to remain stable in midfield and build play in phases, which has been effective at home where they have only conceded 5 goals in Primera Nacional 2026 this term (0.62 goals per game on average).
Club Atletico Mitre:
Club Atletico Mitre have been a mixed bag throughout the campaign, winning two, drawing two and losing one of their last five. The visitors currently sit 25th in the table, having taken 17 points from 15 games.
Cristian Mazzon has been in charge of Mitre since April 2026 and has maintained an approach that is flexible in nature, with a good passing game and width to their play. They also like to press high up the field, but not manically, instead opting to keep the game at a measured pace. The main difference in their results comes down to their away record, where they are yet to secure a victory in Primera Nacional 2026 and have drawn their last two away matches.
Pino can outscore Machado
Martin Pino has been in red-hot form of late, netting five of Godoy Cruz’s eight goals in their last five matches. If he gets on the scoresheet again on Sunday, he could outscore Mitre’s own top scorer, Marcos Machado, who has three to his name over the same period.
As such, we’re going with the under for this one in the goal markets, as odds of 1.33 look fair.
Godoy Cruz should have enough about them to edge Mitre in a tight affair and are just the right side of the line in the moneyline market at 1.67. We’re also going for both teams to score in the ‘Yes’ category at 2.64.
- The history between these two clubs is not well known, but Sunday’s game will have big implications for the Primera Nacional 2026 table.
- Godoy Cruz are at their best at home and have an unblemished home record in the league this term.
- However, Mitre will make life tough for them and we could see a tactical chess match with few clear-cut chances.
