Banfield 1-2 Instituto - Liga Profesional 2024 Statistical Preview

Bruno Sepulveda wasn't fit enough to start last time out but will surely return here with Banfield desperate for goals.
Guillermo Enrique was forced off through injury against Central Cordoba and may not make it for this one.

The core group will continue to represent Instituto - no changes would be no surprise.
Ignacio Russo will be pushing to replace Damian Puebla however with his goal from the bench last time out.

Prediction

The pressure continues to grow for Gustavo Munua with limited progress made since Banfield parted company with Falcioni just a few months ago.
The departure of Milton Gimenez to Boca Juniors continues to hamper Banfield's plans with Bruno Sepulveda the only man looking likely to find the scoresheet.
Instituto responded with real professionalism having lost ground on league leaders Velez Sarsfield with a comprehensive victory over Defensa y Justicia in their last outing.
Continuing to rely on a consistent 13 to 14 players has been the key to Instituto's progress up the table - they have been fortunate to see most of their squad fit throughout the season so far.
