Circulo Deportivo vs Sol de Mayo - Torneo Federal A

The Torneo Federal A returns to the home ground on September 6, 2026, where Circulo Deportivo and Sol de Mayo will lock horns in a contest that could shape their respective campaigns. O'Neill made five changes for Celtic's midweek win at St Johnstone as he rested some key players ahead of Sunday's clash.

Circulo Deportivo head into the contest positioned 37th in the Torneo Federal A standings, while Sol de Mayo arrive sitting 28th. It has been a torrid run for the hosts, DWLDL in their last five and a season win rate of just 12.5% that has the alarm bells ringing. The visitors have been a mixed bag on the road, DLLWD in their last five and a win rate of 25% reflecting their unpredictability. The contrast in attacking output — 0.5 versus 0.94 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. One position every Premier League club still needs to strengthen in before the transfer window closes.

Set-piece efficiency could prove the difference on the night. Both Circulo Deportivo and Sol de Mayo have invested time in dead-ball situations this season, and a single corner or free-kick may settle it. Andoni Iraola could not have been clearer about how he plans to change Liverpool when speaking in his opening press conference.

All eyes will be on the league's leading marksman Imanol Iriberri, whose 3 goals this season make him the standout threat and a player capable of deciding the outcome on his own. The battle in midfield, where both sides look to control tempo, could prove the decisive arena.

Predictions are tricky when the sides are this evenly matched, and small margins — a moment of quality, a slice of luck — could decide it either way. On balance, Sol de Mayo may just have enough to take all three points. A 1-2 away win would not be a shock. The ramifications of this result could ripple through the Torneo Federal A standings for weeks to come, regardless of who comes out on top. Harry Kane is the favourite to win the Ballon d’Or.
