With two points from three games so far, El Granate are currently penultimate in the league table and need to get their season underway as soon as possible.

Next up is a duel against an opposing team they have beaten in four of the last five cross-team encounters of 2018.

Ahead of a disheartening display against River Plate a week later, the hosts on Sunday will look to book a morale-boosting win this weekend.

Colon picked up his first three points of the new season after beating River Plate 1-0 at the Estadio Brigadier General Estanislao Lopez on Wednesday.

Julio Cesar Falcioni‘s men broke the deadlock in the 74th minute courtesy of Ramon Abila‘s opener, and that was enough to get the job done in Santa Fe.

The Tarpon Fishers moved up to eighth place in the table and are now only two points behind Estudiantes at the top of the table.

However, Sunday’s visitors continue to struggle away as they haven’t won any of their last nine away games since February 23.

We say: Lanus 1-1 Colon

While Colon is the more in-form team to come into play, their struggles on the road make it difficult to imagine them taking all three points and as a result we’re betting on a share of the loot at the end of the 90 minutes.
