Arsenal vs. Banfield (Monday, 10.00pm)
On Monday, Arsenal Sarandi have a chance to win consecutive domestic games for the first time all season when they host Banfield at Estadio Julio Humberto Grondona.
El Arse are dead-last in Group A in the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division campaign, despite defeating Defensa y Justicia 1-0 on matchday seven, while Banfield moved up to eighth with a 1-0 victory over Lanus.
We say: Arsenal Sarandi 0-0 Banfield
The last three encounters between these two sides wound up in a goalless draw, and neither have shown us much creativity when in possession, so we expect a relatively comfortable match for both goalkeepers.

Barracas Central vs. Colon (Monday, 10.00pm)
Barracas Central can stretch their home unbeaten run in the Argentine Primera Division to 11 matches when they host Colon on Monday at Claudio Fabian Tapia Stadium.
A week ago, Baraquenos moved out of the Group A basement thanks to a 1-1 draw with Sarmiento, while Colon are a point back of Independiente for first after settling for a goalless draw at home to Union.
We say: Barracas Central 1-1 Colon
Barracas have looked much more comfortable defensively in front of their home fans, but they will be coming up against a Colon side full of confidence given their form in this phase, so three points might be hard to come by for Baraquenos.

Velez Sarsfield vs. Tucuman (Tuesday, 12.30am)
Velez Sarsfield will put their 100% home record in the second phase of the 2023 Argentine Primera Division campaign at stake on Monday when they host Atletico Tucuman at Estadio Jose Amalfitani.
El Fortin are coming off a 0-0 draw away to Tigre at the end of September, putting them on 10 points in Group A, even with El Decano, who also incurred a goalless draw last week versus Central Cordoba.
We say: Velez Sarsfield 1-0 Atletico Tucuman
El Decano have been indecisive in the attacking third away from home and have not created many scoring opportunities either, and we expect to see a lot more urgency out of the home side on Monday given their current predicament.
