Vélez Sarsfield: winless run on the road
Vélez Sarsfield edged Gimnasia y Esgrima Mendoza 1-0 in their most recent Primera División fixture on 17 October 2026. Despite firing 20 shots and earning 12 corners, the hosts managed just a single goal, with the scoreline still goalless at halftime.

However, five draws during this stretch highlight some struggles in turning performances into wins. Offensively, Vélez are relatively modest, averaging 1.2 goals per match, while their defense has been fairly reliable, conceding only 1.1 goals per game. Nevertheless, their away record raises concerns: Vélez have failed to secure a victory in seven of their last eight matches on the road.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
Vélez Sarsfield come into this clash as clear favourites, and it’s hard to argue with that assessment. Central Córdoba are in poor form, struggling to snap a lengthy winless streak. The visitors, by contrast, have shown much more consistency and currently sit higher in the standings. Still, playing away always carries some risk, so it makes sense to hedge against a potential draw. Our main prediction is a Vélez Sarsfield win with a 0 handicap.
