Gimnasia La Plata found a way to win without the most proficient performance for the second game running with their narrow 1-0 win away at Huracan, following a similar result at home to Lanus. Five clean sheets in their last seven Liga Profesional matches speaks to the defensive stability Gimnasia can rely on when required. Godoy Cruz will hope that there won't be any opposition managers trying to interfere in play this week after Alexander Medina's moment of madness for Velez last time out. That draw with Velez Sarsfield saw Godoy Cruz extend their run of games without victory to three and will hope to return to the form that saw them win three consecutive games prior before long. 1:1
