Bitesize Prediction: Atletico Tucuman vs Godoy Cruz – 14/06/23

Competition: Argentine Premier Division

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 1/2 @ BetUS

Hoping to secure back-to-back Primera Division victories in the early hours of Wednesday, Godoy Cruz will travel to Atletico Tucuman.

Starting with the hosts, making an immediate return to losing ways last week as they slumped to a 2-1 loss away at Anus, Atletico Tucuman have once again shown a host of Primera Division issues in 2023. Although Lucas Pusineri’s men might have signed off May with a much-needed boost at home against Arsenal Sarandi, El Decano have mustered just a single win from any of their last seven domestic appearances across all competitions. With that extended rut stemming all the way back to a 3-1 victory against Racing Club on April 24th, Atletico have also shown some extended defensive struggles. Crashing out of the Copa Argentina last month following a 3-1 drumming at home against Estudiantes Rio Cuarto, Wednesday’s hosts have recorded just a sole domestic clean sheet over the past couple of months. It should also be highlighted, Pusineri’s inconsistent squad have seen six of their last seven matchups on home soil finish with over 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, while Godoy Cruz might have settled for a sluggish bottom-half finish last season, Sergio Gomez’s side are enjoying an eye-catching Primera Division flurry this time around. Battling it out in the top-nine and with a Copa Sudamericana at the top of their agenda in 2023, the Express have lost just one of their last 10 straight domestic appearances across all formats – a run that stems all the way back to a 3-0 drumming at the hands of Argentinos Juniors on March 30th. Last seen putting in another rugged display as they secured a 2-0 victory at home against Independiente, Gomez’s side could be smelling the chance to make another top-flight statement here. However, forced to settle for a 1-1 draw when they travelled to Tucuman last season, neutrals could be treated to an enjoyable affair here. It should be noted, with the Mendoza-based outfit seeing 12 of their previous 14 contests finish with over 1.5 goals, we are backing a similar outcome in midweek.
