Derby day, as always
Standings and form
In terms of points in the standings, these two teams are level with each other after two matches in the Liga Profesional – Clausura 2026 with San Lorenzo sitting 22nd and Huracan 20th.
San Lorenzo have been solid at home in the Clausura 2026, winning their only home match 1-0, while Huracan are yet to win on the road after one game, taking zero points and conceding 2.00 goals per game.
Tactics
That disparity in style should make for a typical derby day, where San Lorenzo will want to be on top and in control, while Huracan will want to turn it into a rough and tough contest. San Lorenzo have shown themselves to be more structured and pragmatic under Nestor Gorosito, who has implemented a 3-5-2 system where his team sit deep with their wing-backs.
Contrastingly, Diego Martinez's Huracan have been much more fast-paced and vertical, they press high up the pitch and look to hit players in behind in transition.
Key players
- Gregorio Rodriguez has been the creative spark for San Lorenzo in the Clausura 2026, notching 1 assist in 1 match, while Cesar Ibanez has chipped in with 1 assist in 2 games for Huracan, who have a real threat in the box with Jordy Caicedo netting 1 goal in 2 matches.
Huracan could nick it
Players to watch
This is a very even clash on paper, so the fact that both San Lorenzo and Huracan are priced at 2.9 and the draw at 2.62 should tell you that this derby will be cagey.
Under 2.5 goals at 1.25 and BTTS No at 1.42 both seem way too low.
With the form of these two sides being so similar and the head-to-head favouring Huracan, who won 1-0 in Liga Profesional – Apertura 2026 and are unbeaten in the last 2, we're going to take them to edge a tough one.
- Rodrigo Auzmendi is the main danger man for San Lorenzo, notching 1 goal in 2 in Clausura 2026, and 2 of the last 4 San Lorenzo goals in the last 5 games.
- Oscar Romero has been in equally good form for Huracan, with 2 of their 5 goals in the same time period being scored by him.
