In last weekend’s Copa Libertadores, San Lorenzo de Almagro played to a 0-0 draw with Palmeiras in an away game. As a result, they finished second in their group and successfully advanced to the knockout stage. It’s worth noting that this is the first time San Lorenzo have reached the knockout stage of the Copa Libertadores since 2019, which has significantly boosted their morale. In May, San Lorenzo have been performing quite well. They achieved two wins, two draws, and one loss in their five games. During this period, they scored six goals and only conceded three, demonstrating both offensive and defensive capabilities. Furthermore, San Lorenzo have displayed strong performance at home, with five wins, four draws, and one loss in their last 10 home games, showcasing their home momentum.
On the other hand, Sarmiento have been experiencing a significant decline in form. In their last league match, they suffered a 0-1 defeat at home against Independiente Rivadavia. Over their last seven games, they have only managed one draw and suffered six losses, reflecting a poor performance. Notably, Sarmiento have scored just two goals and conceded eight in these seven games, indicating a lack of effectiveness in both their offensive and defensive play. In fact, Sarmiento’s overall strength remains relatively low in the league, and their performance has been lackluster. Additionally, Sarmiento struggle in away games, having achieved only one win, one draw, and four losses in their last six away games, displaying a consistent poor away performance.
There is a clear disparity in terms of overall strength and performance between the two teams. San Lorenzo can be considered superior to Sarmiento in every aspect. Furthermore, San Lorenzo hold a significant advantage in their head-to-head matches against Sarmiento. Taking these factors into account, it seems reasonable for San Lorenzo, who have been in excellent form recently, to continue their pursuit of success.
