Game Prediction
In the 25th round of the Argentine Primera División, on December 2, 2024, Boca Juniors vs Gimnasia La Plata will take place. The hosts, aiming to at least surpass River Plate and finish in the top 5, are facing a team with nothing left to play for.
Our prediction for the match Boca Juniors vs Gimnasia La Plata
"Boca Juniors" had a fantastic 2022, winning nearly every possible national trophy. However, 2023 was a disappointment, with the club finishing in 7th place in the Primera. On the other hand, "Los Wolfes" had an even worse season, ending up in the lower half of the table in 22nd place.
Currently, the prestigious club from Buenos Aires has been inconsistent. There were high hopes for the Trofeo Diego Maradona, but despite reaching the playoffs, they ultimately finished without a trophy. In the Copa Sudamericana, they were knocked out in the round of 16 by Cruzeiro after a penalty shootout. The domestic league has also been a struggle, and despite a good patch of form in the last few rounds, the team is still stuck in the top 10 of the current standings. In the Copa de la Liga, Boca was eliminated by Vélez Sarsfield 1-3.
Gimnasia La Plata had a modest showing in the Trofeo Diego Maradona, finishing with 16 points from 14 matches, far from the top spots. The same trend continued in the Primera, where they earned just a little over one point per match. Their hopes of shining in the Copa were dashed when they lost to Boca Juniors in the semifinals by penalties. Recently, they won their first match in nine rounds against Newell's Old Boys, but then lost to Independiente. They did manage to secure a narrow 1-0 win against Atlético Tucumán.
