San Telmo vs Racing Cordoba

At the Isla Maciel, San Telmo host Racing de Córdoba in a direct clash carrying heavyweight points for Zona A survival. The hosts are fifteenth with 16 points, the visitors fourteenth on 17: one point apart, identical need for results. Both teams' profiles tell the same story: the Candombero have scored 12 goals in sixteen rounds with seven draws to their name, while the Córdoba Academia have 14 but a defence breached 19 times and confidence at rock bottom after weeks of poor results. Long away trips, from Córdoba to the south of Buenos Aires, rarely produce brave teams: Racing will arrive covered up, thinking first about not losing, while San Telmo at home live on intensity and set pieces rather than elaborate attacking play. This is the classic Under 3.5 context in this division: lower-table tension, modest attacks, episodes deciding everything. Clearing three total goals would require an open game neither side has any interest in building. The risk is a heavy scoreline if Córdoba's nerves snap completely, something glimpsed already this season. Confidence 6 out of 10: the scenario points to a scrappy, compressed match.
