This Friday begins Matchday 12 of the LFP with a very good match between Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata and Godoy Cruz, two teams that fight at the top.
Gimnasia does not want to lose the fight for the title and will seek to take advantage of the good moment of the team to extend its streak and put pressure on the leader, Atlético Tucumán.
On the other hand, Godoy Cruz has lowered their level and is looking to return to the path of victory to continue in the first place.
The game between Gimnasia and Godoy Cruz for Matchday 12 of the Primera Argentina will be played this Friday, August 5 at El Bosque de La Plata.

Why Bet on Gimnasia
Gimnasia is excited. The team from La Plata has not yet won its first league in the professional era and dreams of doing so in this tournament. Right now they are second in the tournament with 21 points, 4 less than Atlético Tucumán.
After 3 games in which they lost twice and tied in the other, they got two wins that put them back in the fight. In addition, they have not lost at home since April 14, showing that El Bosque is a stronghold and that the fans have played a fundamental role, something that they hope to take advantage of this Friday. That and the Uruguayan Brahian Alemán, one of the best players in the tournament.
Coach Néstor Gorosito could repeat for the third consecutive game the same lineup that has just won the last two games.
On this Matchday, they play first than Tucumán, who will do it on Saturday, so if they win there would be one point behind the Dean and would put pressure on the rivals before their game.
Why Bet on Godoy Cruz
Godoy Cruz is one of the teams that was the leader but had a downturn. In the last 3 games, they tied with Huracán (0-0) and Vélez (1-1), and lost to Unión (2-1), finishing fifth, seven points behind Atlético Tucumán. In total there have been 5 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses, scoring 13 goals and conceding 9.
The Tomba suffered this week the loss of defender Elías López, who performed very well, who tore the cruciate ligaments in his left knee and will not play again this year. Favio Orsi will have to see who can replace the right-back who was on loan from River Plate.
