Club Atlético Tigre
Club Atlético Tigre, nicknamed El Matador and coached by Juan Manuel Sara, is 8th in the Argentine Primera División with 27 points from 18 matches (7 wins, 6 draws, 5 losses), per FcTables.com. They advanced to the Argentina Cup Round of 16 after a 1-0 win over Excursionistas on April 17, 2025, with Nicolás Contín scoring. Their form shows 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last five matches across all competitions, averaging 1.22 goals scored and 0.8 goals conceded per game. Key players include Contín (3 goals in 2024) and Ignacio Russo, who scored in a 1-0 league win over Banfield on February 25, 2025. Tigre’s strengths are their home form (5 wins in 9 at Estadio José Dellagiovanna) and defensive solidity (33.33% of home games over 2.5 goals), but injuries to Blas Armoa (ankle) and Juan Cruz Giacone (knee) weaken their attack. They aim to reach the quarter-finals, leveraging their recent wins over Banfield.
Banfield
Banfield, known as El Taladro and coached by Gustavo Munúa, is 25th in the Primera División with 14 points from 18 matches (3 wins, 5 draws, 10 losses). They reached the Round of 16 with a 1-0 win over Villa Mitre on April 2, 2025, via a Juan Bisanz goal. Their form includes 1 win, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last five, averaging 0.88 goals scored and 1.2 goals conceded per game. Key players include Bisanz and 18-year-old reserve striker Tiziano Perrotta, called up for this match, per @HisDeInferiores. Banfield’s strengths are their defensive resilience (40% over 2.5 goals) and penalty shootout success, but their attack struggles (0.4 goals per game in last 5) and suspensions to Juan Quintana and Mauricio Roldán limit options. They seek an upset to boost their season.
Head-to-Head
Tigre and Banfield have met 20 times since 2007, with Tigre winning 8 (25 goals, 1.3 per game), Banfield 9 (23 goals, 1.1 per game), and 3 draws, per AiScore.com. Tigre won the last two encounters: 1-0 on February 25, 2025 (Russo) and 1-0 on November 18, 2024 (Contín). Recent matches show a low-scoring trend, with the last four under 2.5 goals and no both teams scoring (BTTS). Tigre has won 5 of 12 home games against Banfield, but Banfield’s 4 wins in the last 8 H2H games show competitiveness. Matches average 2.42 goals, with 50% over 2.5 goals historically.
Prediction: Club Atlético Tigre 1-0 Banfield
This Round of 16 match on June 26, 2025, at Estadio Nuevo Francisco Urbano, Morón, at 7:30 PM ART (6:30 PM EDT), is a neutral-site clash with high stakes. Tigre’s recent wins over Banfield and home-like support in Morón make them favorites, per Oddspedia (2.00 odds). Contín and Russo should test Banfield’s defense, while Banfield’s Bisanz and Perrotta could exploit Tigre’s injury-hit squad. Banfield’s defensive form (3 clean sheets in 5) suggests a tight game, but their low scoring (0.4 goals per game) and Tigre’s H2H edge tilt the scales. Posts on X, like @catigreoficial, hype Tigre’s momentum, while @CAB_oficial notes Banfield’s focus. Trends (Tigre: 20% over 2.5 goals; Banfield: 40%) and recent H2H (4/4 under 2.5) point to a low-scoring affair. Referee Hernán Mastrángelo may issue cards if Banfield’s physicality rises.
Tigre is likely to score through Contín or Russo, with goalkeeper Tomás Durso holding firm. Tigre’s recent dominance and defensive edge should secure a narrow win, advancing them to the quarter-finals, while Banfield’s attack falters despite a gritty effort.
