Gimnasia Jujuy's depth should secure them victory
Chacarita Juniors landed the last punch when these teams met home and away in Primera Nacional 2026 four months ago, beating Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy 3-1 at home in the return leg, but this fixture has been finely poised in recent seasons with both sides winning 2 and 1 draw in the last 5 clashes.
The hosts are in much better form and will be difficult to beat on Sunday as they come into the game following a 3-1-1 in their last 5. They have won 8 and drawn 1 of their 9 at home in Primera Nacional 2026 and have scored 21 goals in those games, conceding just 5.
Hernan Pellerano has turned Gimnasia into a solid unit this season, one that is compact, pragmatic and deadly on the counterattack. They are very balanced with Cristian Menendez on 5 goals in 15 matches being their leading Primera Nacional 2026 scorer, but they have some in-form players to watch as Octavio Bianchi has hit 3 goals in their last 5 matches, which have seen Gimnasia Jujuy hit 10. This Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy vs Chacarita Juniors prediction highlights why the home side may have the edge again.
Chacarita Juniors are in a fight for survival
Cristian Emilio Grabinski's men come into this one in mixed-to-poor nick, with just 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats in their last 5 in all competitions. The away side will most likely sit back in this fixture and try to stay compact while hoping to nick a goal on the break, although they have scored only five goals on the road in Primera Nacional 2026. Maximiliano Melendez is their biggest threat, with 5 goals in 19 appearances and 2 of them in the past 3 matches. Chacarita Juniors will surely get a chance to hurt the home team, and the tight nature of the head-to-head points to a very tight contest, so Under 2.5 goals at 1.54 looks the best bet. For those seeking Gimnasia Y Esgrima de Jujuy vs Chacarita Juniors betting tips, the low-scoring angle is the most appealing.
In our view, the hosts are backed to make the difference at home.
