Almagro vs Patronato Prediction & Betting Tips (8 October)

Winning away games was something that Patronato did regularly towards the back end of last season, with the eventual runners-up securing five victories in their final eight trips. Almagro, by way of contrast, ran into plenty of difficulties on their own patch, suffering four defeats in seven top-flight fixtures, so they have little reason for optimism ahead of this clash.

If recent Almagro home games are anything to go by, then it would come as a surprise to see more than three successful strikes in this contest, as 16 of their last 19 matches at the Almagro stadium have produced under 3.5 goals. This has also been the case in 14 of the most recent 16 games involving Patronato in the Primera Nacional, so all the signs point one way.

Almagro have played 11 home games in the Primera Nacional, failing to keep a clean sheet in any of these fixtures, but the strugglers have at least scored at the other end in six of the last eight. As for Patronato, the net has bulged at both ends in seven of their last 11 away matches at the top table of the Almagro, and they rarely keep clean sheets on the road.
