Talleres Cordoba vs San Lorenzo Prediction & Betting Tips (1 March)

Talleres Córdoba hosting San Lorenzo in the Liga Profesional feels like one of those early‑season fixtures that quietly shapes the table. Scheduled at the Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes in late February for the Apertura, it brings together a home side that has started the campaign with a mixed 1‑0‑2 record and a visitor sitting slightly better after three games. San Lorenzo also carry the psychological edge of their most recent league meeting, a 2‑1 victory over Talleres in July 2025, so the hosts will be eager to show that the balance of power has shifted since that setback.

For Talleres, recent weeks have been about proving resilience as much as flair. They are coming off a valuable 1‑0 away win over Rosario Central, a result that underlined their capacity to manage tight games while relying on contributions from players like Schott, Martínez and Depietri, with Baroni knitting things together from midfield. Their schedule has been demanding, with trips and ties highlighted in our previews of Central Córdoba vs Talleres Córdoba (1-0), Lanús vs Talleres Córdoba (2-1) and Talleres Córdoba vs Argentino de Merlo (3-0), all of which show how often their matches hinge on fine margins and disciplined defending.

San Lorenzo arrive with slightly stronger early‑season numbers, having opened the Liga Profesional campaign with two wins and one defeat, and with their attack looking sharp. Cuello has been particularly influential, contributing both goals and assists, while Herazo and Rodríguez give them different profiles in the final third. Their recent calendar has been packed with home dates, including clashes covered in our analyses of San Lorenzo vs Instituto (2-0), San Lorenzo vs Estudiantes Río Cuarto (2-1) and San Lorenzo vs Lanús (1-0). Those games, along with their solid league start, suggest a side that can control tempo but is also comfortable grinding out results when space is limited.

All of this sets up a fascinating tactical duel in Córdoba, where both managers know the importance of not losing ground to a direct rival so early in the Apertura. Talleres will lean on their compact structure and the confidence gained from that recent away win, while San Lorenzo’s coaching staff may prioritise defensive balance over taking excessive risks, especially given their positive points tally so far. With both teams showing they can keep things tight and with neither wanting to open up too early, our view is that the most plausible outcome is a cagey stalemate, and we ultimately side with a 0-0 correct score predict
