Chacarita and Güemes look likely to struggle
This Chacarita Juniors vs Club Atletico Guemes preview suggests that Chacarita Juniors are ahead of Club Atletico Guemes in points in Primera Nacional 2026, but neither side is likely to have a successful season in 2026.

For Chacarita Juniors vs Club Atletico Guemes betting tips, the draw at 3.1 looks a fair value here, but there are many other aspects to this game to consider.
Cristian Emilio Grabinski has instilled a two-striker 4-4-2 with lots of aggressive pressing at Chacarita. They look to win the ball high up and have enough bite to break teams down, as their 2-1 home win over Agropecuario showed. They have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five, which isn't a great return.
Güemes arrive in far worse form, winless in five, with one draw and four defeats, including a 3-0 away loss to Agropecuario and a 1-1 draw at Mitre. Pablo Guinazu has done a decent job since taking over on 20 May 2026, but his 4-4-2 formation - built around wide attacks and direct breaks - has looked shaky under pressure.
Güemes have goalscorer in form
Maximiliano Melendez has been the most reliable finisher in Primera Nacional 2026 for Chacarita with five in 20, but Cristian Guanca has given them a lift, scoring 2 of their 4 goals in the last 5 games. Güemes' forward Juan Sotelo has nine in 18 and has scored three of his side's last three goals across the past five games.
The Gaucho have won two of the three previous meetings between these two sides with Chacarita claiming the other. But the Funebrero are the favorite at 1.9 with Güemes at 4.1 and the draw at 3.1.
