On the 19th of March, in this week 7 match, Lanús plays host to Banfield in a meeting of these two closely matched Superliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 20 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. Lanús is fresh off their 1-1 draw against Colón. Perez scored the first goal for Lanús in the 30th minute, then Lucas Beltrán tied it up for Colón in the 54th minute earning Colón a comeback draw. Lanús looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 7th placed Banfield, recorded a 1-2 loss against Unión Santa Fe. Diego Polenta scored the first goal for Unión Santa Fe in the 4th minute, then Luciano Lollo added another on an own goal in the 55th minute. Banfield is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Banfield won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Banfield is glad to have Giuliano Galoppo in top form. In the last 5 matches the midfielder has scored four goals. Both and Perez have been the hottest scorers for Lanús in the last five each having scored 2 goals.
