Instituto Cordoba host Gimnasia M. at Estadio Presidente Peron on Sunday at 20:00 UTC in matchday four of the Liga Profesional Argentina, Clausura. Both sides sit in the top third of the 30-team table, with six points each from three matches played, and a points gap of zero between them.
Instituto Cordoba occupy fourth place with two wins and one defeat, registering three goals scored and two conceded in the Clausura so far. Across their last five matches in all competitions, they have accumulated 10 points, a sequence that includes victories over Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto, Deportivo Riestra and Defensa Y Justicia alongside a draw with Newells Old Boys and a defeat to Estudiantes L.P.
Gimnasia M. sit third, also with two wins and one defeat, and carry a tighter defensive record of three goals scored and one conceded in the Clausura. Their last five matches have also returned 10 form points, with wins against Defensa Y Justicia, Lanus and Velez Sarsfield offset by a draw at Platense and a 5-1 defeat to Independ. Rivadavia.
The head-to-head record from earlier this year is held by the visitors: Gimnasia M. won 1-0 when the two sides last met on 9 February 2026. That result gives the away side a recent edge as both clubs arrive at Estadio Presidente Peron with identical points tallies and matching form across the past five fixtures. With the table as tight as it is at this early stage of the Clausura, the positions of both sides in the top third of 30 teams stand as a clear marker of where each currently sits.
