Union 2-1 San Lorenzo - Liga Profesional 2024 Statistical Preview

An ill-disciplined last outing against Independiente Rivadavia means both Adrian Balboa and Bruno Pitton will be suspended here following red cards.
Lucas Gamba could return to the starting side in place of Balboa with that suspension in mind.

Adam Bareiro remains an injury doubt so it will be up to the rotation options to provide an attacking threat which San Lorenzo consistently lack.

Prediction

Union are in great form heading into Copa America and will want to extend their unbeaten run to five matches here, setting them up towards the top of the table prior to the month break.
Just one goal conceded so far in Liga Profesional with three clean sheets in four, shows Union are a well balanced outfit and a real competitor for the title this season.
San Lorenzo have been inconsistent so far this campaign, but progression both continentally and in Copa Argentina shows they can fight on all fronts in spite of a trimmed down squad compared to previous seasons.
Just one goal scored so far this season for San Lorenzo in the league will be a concern for a side which is already over reliant on a single number nine.
