Gimnasia have actually won more matches across the same 20-game stretch, 12 to Rivadavia's 9, even with their lower league position. Their last five reads two wins, two draws and one loss, so they're unbeaten in four of five, and goals at both ends have been a regular feature.

Gimnasia's underlying numbers over the longer run are stronger than their table position implies, so this could be tighter than it first looks.

Comparative Team Statistics: Independ. Rivadavia vs Gimnasia L.P.

Head-to-head

The three most recent meetings, all since 2024, have gone Rivadavia's way: a 3-2 away win at Gimnasia in March 2026, a 1-0 home win in July 2024, and a 3-2 away win in January 2024. Two of those three finished with five goals on the board.

There's older history too, stretching back over a decade including matches in the lower Primera Nacional tier, where Gimnasia won 3-0 in 2013 and there were a couple of draws before that. That older sample tells us little about either side's current level.

Based on the meetings recorded here, Rivadavia haven't lost to Gimnasia since 2013, and recent games between them have tended to produce goals.

League standings

In the main table, Rivadavia sit top with 34 points from 16 games, while Gimnasia are sixth with 26 from the same number of matches, an eight-point gap.

There's also a shorter table covering 10 games where both sides sit level on 17 points, Rivadavia third and Gimnasia fourth. That suggests the gap between them may have opened up more recently rather than being a season-long trend.

Rivadavia's current position is stronger, but the shorter table hints the gap isn't as wide as the full standings suggest.

Players to watch

For Rivadavia, A. Arce leads the scoring with 9 goals in 19 appearances, with F. Sartori adding 8 in 24. M. Fernández has 6 assists, and S. Villa's 5 assists from just 14 games hints at an efficient supply line when he's involved.

Gimnasia's attacking threat centres on M. Torres, 8 goals in 22 games, and A. Auzmendi with 7 in 28. On the disciplinary side, three Gimnasia players, I. Fernández, I. Miramón and A. Steimbach, have picked up double-figure or near double-figure yellow cards this season, so bookings could be a factor in how the game is refereed.
