Godoy Cruz vs Los Andes Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

Godoy Cruz and Los Andes are set to face off in an Argentina Primera Nacional clash on 3 October 2026, with kick-off at the Estadio Feliciano Gambarte in Mendoza. The home side comes into this fixture in strong form as the 2026/2027 season reaches its decisive phase, sitting firmly in the promotion race in Zona A, while Los Andes arrive mid-table but notoriously difficult to beat. The reverse fixture back in May 2026 ended in a narrow 1-0 win for Los Andes at the Eduardo Gallardón, so Godoy Cruz will be eager to settle the score in front of their own supporters in this return encounter.

Godoy Cruz have been one of the most consistent sides in the division over the past two months, picking up five wins in their last seven league outings under coach Pablo de Muner. Their most recent result was a 2-2 draw away to Racing Córdoba (2-2), which followed victories over Deportivo Morón, Colón, San Miguel and San Telmo. The one blemish in that run came away to Deportivo Madryn (2-0), while earlier in August they ground out a hard-fought away win at Acassuso (0-1). For the 2026/2027 campaign, Muner has built his side around goalkeeper Juan Strumia, defenders Francisco Gerometta, Tomás Rossi, Diego Viera and Nahuel Brunet, a midfield featuring Benjamín Schamine, Gastón Gil Romero, Felipe Cairus and Vicente Poggi, and a dangerous attack led by Martín Pino, the club's top scorer this season, alongside Santiago Martínez and Axel Rodríguez.

Los Andes, coached by Leonardo Lemos, present a completely different profile: they are the draw specialists of the Primera Nacional, with 13 stalemates already this season and one of the lowest goals-against records in the zone, built on the arrivals of Mario Galeano, Alex Valdez, Sergio Ortíz, Camilo Viganoni and Daniel Alejandro Franco for the 2026/2027 season. The Lomas de Zamora side went ten matches without a win before finally breaking their duck on 27 September, edging Deportivo Morón (2-1) thanks to a stoppage-time header from Franco Tisera, with veteran striker Mauricio Asenjo also on the scoresheet. Before that morale-boosting victory, Los Andes had been held to draws by Defensores de Belgrano (1-1), San Miguel (1-1), San Telmo (0-0) and Acassuso (0-0), and beaten 3-0 by Colón, highlighting just how rarely they concede — and how rarely they score.

The European odds reflect the gulf in momentum between the two sides: Godoy Cruz are clear favourites for the home win at around 1.57 (best price 1.74 at Unibet), the draw is priced at roughly 3.20 to 3.49, and an away win for Los Andes is a distant 6.25 (up to 6.30 at Betsson), with under 2.5 goals trading at just 1.37 and "both teams to score – no" at 1.40. Those numbers tell the story perfectly: bookmakers expect a tight, low-scoring affair dominated by the hosts, and the correct score 1-0 is the shortest-priced option at 5.12. Taking all of this into account — Godoy Cruz's attacking depth at home against a Los Andes side that has struggled to find the net all season — our prediction is a 1-0 home win for Godoy C
