Today's game between Banfield and Lanus will kick off at Oct 24, 2026, 1:45 PM.
Banfield vs Lanus is available to watch live in the United States. TV channel and live stream options are listed below.
Banfield host Lanus in a Liga Profesional Clausura Group B fixture that carries real weight for the home side, who need points to escape the lower reaches of the table.
Pedro Troglio's Banfield have found wins hard to come by in recent weeks. Three draws from their last four league outings tell the story of a side that has struggled to turn pressure into results, and the pressure on Troglio is growing.
Lanus arrive in sharply contrasting form. Mauricio Pellegrino's side have won four of their last five competitive matches and head into this fixture with confidence and momentum behind them.
The visitors sit fifth in Clausura Group A, well placed in the standings, while Banfield are mired in 11th in Clausura Group B. The gap between these two sides in the table reflects the wider gap in form and confidence heading into the match.
For Banfield, a home fixture against a side in such good form represents a stern test. Three points would provide real relief; anything less will intensify the scrutiny on Troglio's squad.
