Deportivo Maipú vs Godoy Cruz Prediction & Betting Tips 29.03.2026

Deportivo Maipú come into this with three games without a win, and their recent league results have been thin on defensive control. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six, and even at home they were beaten 1-0 by Ferrocarril Midland after allowing 1.3 xGA from 16 shots conceded. That does not point to a side reliably shutting opponents out.

Godoy Cruz are steadier, but their away numbers are still modest and not especially explosive. They have drawn both of their league trips so far, scoring only two goals away and averaging just 0.7 goals per match on the road. The 1-1 at Chaco For Ever was another reminder that they can compete without turning matches into high-scoring games.

The broader scoring picture also leans against both teams finding the net. Godoy Cruz have gone under 2.5 goals in six of their last seven, while Deportivo Maipú’s last six have repeatedly stayed tight enough to leave one side blank. Even the xG projection of 1.2 for Maipú and 0.9 for Godoy Cruz leaves this looking like a low-margin contest rather than one that should open up.

There is one tension for a BTTS - No selection: Deportivo Maipú have scored in several recent matches, and Godoy Cruz have only failed to score once in their last six. Even so, Godoy Cruz’s away record has produced just two goals, and their recent draw-heavy run has been built on controlled, low-event games. That profile is enough to favour one team being held down on the night.

My prediction is BTTS - No at 8/13. Deportivo Maipú have gone without a clean sheet in six straight, but Godoy Cruz’s away record is only two goals in two league trips, and six of their last seven have gone under 2.5 goals. The xG split is also restrained at 1.2 to 0.9, which fits a match where at least one side fails to score.
