Match Preview
San Lorenzo will host Huracán in a highly anticipated Buenos Aires derby on Saturday, 30 August, at the Estadio Pedro Bidegaín. Both teams come into this match with contrasting recent form; San Lorenzo has managed just one win in their last five matches, while Huracán has found a rhythm with three wins in the same period. This disparity could play a crucial role in the match dynamics, as Huracán looks to build on their momentum.
Historically, this fixture has been tightly contested, with the last ten encounters yielding no away victories, highlighting the home advantage San Lorenzo typically enjoys. However, with five of those matches seeing both teams score, the potential for an engaging and open contest remains high. Given San Lorenzo's struggles to find consistent form, they will need to step up significantly to challenge a Huracán side that appears to be gaining confidence. The outcome may hinge on San Lorenzo's ability to convert their chances and tighten their defence against a Huracán team that is currently in good scoring form.
