Velez Sarsfield vs San Martin San Juan Prediction: A game of the bottom places

In the ninth round of Torneo Betano 2025, Vélez Sarsfield facing San Martín San Juan guaranteeing a good performance in the league will be fought. In the previous round it was a contrast in performance on both sides and the game could prove to be extremely important to both teams.

Velez Sarsfield (LWDLL)

After nine games, Huracán is only 0-2 away from Vélez Sarsfield after being hammered 0-2 at home by them. But they could not get any meaningful chances, failing to have a single shot on goal from the 54 per cent of possession they enjoyed. When Quiros A. scored for Vélez (63') and Pernicone P. (73') followed suit, the match turned sour for Vélez, which fought the game out with nine men. On the defensive, they were exposed as goals were conceded in each of the halves while offering minimal threat to the opposition’s defense. San Martín San Juan, however, will require a much better performance from them, especially from attack, to pick up points.

San Juan San Martin (WLLLD)

On the other hand, 3-1 home win for San Martín San Juan over Belgrano was a confidence booster. They suffered the first as they fell 1-0 down in the 51st minute, but pushed forward and hit three in 40 minutes to win the game. However, the team looked hungry up front with 12 shots as a whole with four found on target. On defensive end, their vulnerability remained, their ability to exploit required.

Expert Betting Tips

This game is an unpredictable match, as these two teams are not frequently meeting each other in the last few years. Although San Martín San Juan enjoyed an attacking uprising at home last weekend, they will be keen to turn their form around, whilst Vélez will want to remedy their last round performance. But Vélez Sarsfield will be desperate to make up for Monday night at home, and must solve their attacking problems. With their comeback win, San Martín San Juan bolstered by their comeback win, will search for a weak point of Vélez's defense. Both teams having had poor runs recently, a close narrow game will be on the cards.
