The difference-makers

Gimnasia de Mendoza. Agustín Modica concentrates over a third of the team scoring output, leaving the side exposed whenever opposing defences contain him since the remaining squad members struggle to sustain a reliable scoring rhythm.

Platense. While Kevin Retamar and Franco Zapiola Yamartino share the scoring load for the visitors, their combined output still falls short of matching Agustín Modica alone, leaving the away side vulnerable against a disciplined defence.
