Aldosivi vs Deportivo Madryn
MAR DEL PLATA, Argentina (Interstat) — Aldosivi hosts Deportivo Madryn on Sunday, May 17, 2026, in a Week 21 matchup of Argentina’s Primera Nacional at Estadio José María Minella.
Aldosivi (4-2 winners over San Martín de San Juan on Nov. 15) enters with momentum after snapping a two-game winless streak. The home side has been strong at the Minella, where it has lost only once in its past five league fixtures. Midfielder Lucas Villarruel, who scored a brace in the last outing, is expected to lead the attack again.
Deportivo Madryn, meanwhile, is coming off a disappointing 2-0 loss at Estudiantes de Buenos Aires on Nov. 22. The defeat extended a troubling trend: Madryn has managed just one win in its last seven matches, dropping it to the lower half of the table. Coach Leandro Benítez will rely on veteran striker Agustín Cattáneo to spark an offense that has scored only six goals in its past eight road games.
Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, but the analytics service’s ELO rating gives Aldosivi a 70.5 percent probability of winning. The discrepancy suggests a tight contest in which home advantage could tip the balance. Aldosivi’s recent form — four goals in the last match — suggests the attack is finding its rhythm, while Madryn’s defensive record on the road has been shaky, conceding 12 goals in its last six away games.
Historically, Aldosivi has dominated this fixture, winning three of the past five encounters, though the last meeting, in March 2025, ended in a scoreless draw. With both teams settled into the mid-table pack in Primera Nacional, three points could provide a crucial boost toward playoff contention.
Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. local time. The match will be broadcast on ESPN Premium in Argentina.
