Sunday's Argentine Primera Division predictions including Gimnasia vs. Boca Juniors

Belgrano vs. San Lorenzo (Sunday, 6.00pm)

San Lorenzo will be bidding to stretch their unbeaten run in all competitions to 10 matches when they travel to Belgrano in the Argentine Primera Division on Sunday.

The visitors are currently third in the table, 11 points behind the leaders River Plate, while Belgrano occupy 10th position, boasting 35 points from their opening 24 matches of the campaign.

We say: Belgrano 0-1 San Lorenzo

Belgrano are more than capable of making this a tricky match for San Lorenzo, and the visitors will be wary of the quality of Vegetti in particular. San Lorenzo are a very difficult team to beat, though, and we are expecting the third-placed side to claim an important three points on Sunday.

Gimnasia vs. Boca Juniors (Sunday, 8.30pm)

Approaching the end of Argentine Primera Division's first phase, mid-table Boca Juniors and lowly Gimnasia meet at El Bosque on Sunday.

The Buenos Aires giants have won three of their last four matches but have still fallen short of their usual high standards this season; meanwhile, their hosts have taken just three points from the last 12 available.

We say: Gimnasia 1-1 Boca Juniors

As Boca have not fared well on the road - winning just three away games in the league this year - Gimnasia can make their defensive solidity at El Bosque pay this weekend. The hosts have conceded just eight times in 11 home matches, so a share of the spoils could be on the cards for Sunday.

Lanus vs. Banfield (Sunday, 11.00pm)

Lanus entertain Greater Buenos Aires rivals Banfield on Sunday as the two sides continue to battle at opposite ends of the Argentine Primera Division table.

While the hosts occupy fourth place, the visitors find themselves third from bottom in the standings - 16 points shy of their opponents this weekend.

We say: Lanus 2-0 Banfield

Regardless of Banfield's recent upturn, we expect Lanus to claim all three points on Sunday, picking up a seventh victory in eight home games while inflicting a fifth defeat in six away outings on the visitors.

C. Cordoba vs. Independiente (Monday, 1.30am)

Central Cordoba hosts Independiente in round 25 of the Argentine Primera Division at Estadio Alfredo Terrera on Monday morning.

El Ferroviario were beaten 2-0 by Rosario Central last time out, while the visitors fell to a similar loss at home to Newell's Old Boys.

We say: Central Cordoba 1-0 Independiente

Another home clean sheet for Central Cordoba could be on the cards against an Independiente side that could go seven games from 12 without scoring on the road.

Argentinos Jrs vs. Colon (Monday, 1.30am)

Two teams seeking to return to winning ways do battle at the Estadio Diego Armando Maradona in Buenos Aires as Argentinos Juniors play host to Colon in the Argentine Primera Division on Sunday.

Goals have been hard to come by for both clubs heading into this contest as they have failed to find the net in each of their last three matches.

We say: Argentinos Juniors 1-0 Colon

A tight affair could be on the cards between two teams who are struggling to find their best form in front of goal, but considering the home record of Argentinos Juniors and their recent meetings with Colon, we believe that the hosts will do just enough to claim a slender victory.
