Bitesize Prediction: CA Mitre vs Villa Dalmine – 18/06/23

Competition: Primera Nacional

Market: CA Mitre win

Odds: 8/15 @ 1xBet

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Primera Nacional table, Mitre will welcome a struggling Villa Dalmine to Santiago del Estero on Sunday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Mitre might have signed off April in the midst of an extended wobble, the Decano have come roaring back in some style. Last seen putting in another gritty display on home soil as they clinched a 1-0 victory against Deportivo Madryn, Arnaldo Siealle’s men have now collected 13 points from just their previous five Primera Nacional appearances – a run that stems all the way back to April 28th. With their recent purple patch highlighted by a 3-0 romp against CA Estudiantes last month, the Santiago del Estero-based outfit will be smelling the chance to make another statement here. Skyrocketing into the play-off places and riding a real wave of momentum, Mitre have continued to impress with their performances at the back. In fact, along with keeping a clean sheet in each of their last five Primera Nacional outings, it should be noted that Sunday’s hosts have not picked the ball out of their own net in over 460 minutes of action.

As for the visitors, while Mitre are enjoying a stellar purple patch, the same cannot be said for a struggling Villa Dalmine. Only continuing on a nightmare run of form and battling it out at the foot of the Primera Nacional table, the Viola are tipped as a leading relegation contender in 2023. Last seen putting in et another downbeat display as they slumped to a 2-0 loss away at Chaco For Ever, Marcelo Franchini’s men are in the midst of a six-match losing run and they have only shown a host of issues at both ends of the pitch. Likewise, notching just a single win from any of their previous 10 straight appearances – a run that stems all the way back to March 25th – there is no doubt that Villa Dalmine face a huge challenge this weekend. Suffering an action-packed 3-2 loss when they travelled to Santiago del Estero last season, we are expecting a similar outcome here.
