The sides will both be looking to return to winning ways having had to settle for a share of the spoils in their most recent involvements.
We say: San Lorenzo 1-0 Union
San Lorenzo have enjoyed the better of this fixture of late, and coupled with their better run of results heading into this one, we are backing them to come away with all three points at the end of the 90 minutes.

Patronato welcome Tigre to the Estadio Presbitero Bartolome Grella on Wednesday in round nine of the 2022 Argentine Primera Division season.

We say: Patronato 1-2 Tigre
The two teams are amongst the highest scorers so far, so we tip both of them to get on the scoresheet in this one. That said, we just about fancy Tigre to scrape a narrow victory come the sound of the final whistle.

Two teams looking to avoid a third defeat in a row square off on Wednesday when Estudiantes play host to Barracas Central at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi.
The sides are currently separated by just one point and one place in the league table, and the clash promises to be a keenly-contested one.
We say: Estudiantes 2-0 Barracas Central
Estudiantes have already exhibited their superiority over Barracas Central once, and we fancy them to continue in the same vein with a routine victory come the sound of the full-time whistle on Wednesday.

There is very little to separate the sides right now, and we expect a tight affair in this one with the teams cancelling each other out and settling for a point apiece in the end.

Seeking to snap their seven-game winless run, Lanus play host to Velez Sarsfield at the Lanus City Stadium in round nine of the Argentine Primera Division on Wednesday.
Alexander Medina's side head into the game without a win in each of their four away games in the league and will be looking to end this dry spell.
We say: Lanus 1-2 Velez Sarsfield
Lanus and Velez have failed to hit their stride in the new campaign and will both head into Wednesday seeking a morale-boosting victory. Lanus have lost six of their last seven games in all competitions and we are backing the visitors to heap their misery by coming out victorious, albeit by a slender margin.

Separated by just one point in the upper echelon of the Argentine Primera Division standings, Huracan and Godoy Cruz square off at the Estadio Tomas Adolfo Duco on Wednesday.
Rodolfo Diego Flores's side will be seeking to pick up a fifth consecutive victory across all competitions for the first time since winning six straight games back in April 2018.
We say: Huracan 2-2 Godoy Cruz
With just one point separating the Huracan and Godoy Cruz, we anticipate a cagey contest with both sides taking the game to each other in search of all three points. They head into the game in similar form and we predict the spoils will be shared in a thrilling draw.
