Banfield looks to start Argentine Primera Division campaign off with second straight win
If you watched any of the two South American Copa tournaments last year, you know how good the Argentine top flight is.
Defensa Y Justicia won the Copa Sudamericana title over Lanús in the final with a 3-0 victory, and there were five teams combined from Argentina in the final four of both cups.
With the teams coming out of the summer towards the fall, the new campaign has just started, with the two Copa de la Liga Profesional Group A and B going into their second week of action.
Tonight, Banfield, which opened its campaign with a 2-0 win over Racing, faces Arsenal (not that one) Sarandi, which opened with a 2-1 loss to San Lorenzo last weekend.
Banfield’s attacking 4-4-3 should be able to score a couple of goals tonight: I will go with the team that is minus money on the road early in the season.
