Unbeaten Sportivo 2 de Mayo visits desperate San Lorenzo in clash of opposites

League leaders Sportivo 2 de Mayo visit last-placed Sportivo San Lorenzo today in a stark clash between opposite ends of the table. The ninth-round Clausura match will be played at Gunther Vogel Stadium, with Derlis Benítez as referee.

The northern side, coached by Eduardo Ledesma and Diego Gavilán, remains the tournament's only unbeaten team. Its record includes five wins and three draws. It is defending both first place and its unbeaten run, with Libertad only two points behind.

2 de Mayo, a team more accustomed to staying away from the title race, has continued collecting points and climbing the annual aggregate table. The club is seeking a place in international competitions.

San Lorenzo are enduring their poorest spell of the season. They sit last in both the league table and the average-points standings, leaving them in danger of an early relegation to the División Intermedia. The club has lost seven consecutive matches and earned its only point in a draw against Recoleta FC on the opening day. That run cost Troadio Duarte his job. His replacement, Pablo Fornasari, began with another defeat against Rubio Ñu, another team in the relegation zone.
