Argentine Primera Division — Quick Tips
- Belgrano -0.5 @ 1.81
- OVER 1.75 (Gimnasia de Mendoza vs Independiente) @ 1.81
Belgrano vs Atletico Tucuman
Short summary: Belgrano have been hard to beat, remain unbeaten in the league and are strong at home. Atletico Tucuman are struggling away and will be without key attacking options.
Belgrano conceded a late equaliser last time out but the result papered over a lot of good work: they are unbeaten in seven league matches (three wins, four draws) and have not lost at home in seven games (two wins, five draws). They have momentum and attacking threats in Zelarrayan and Vazquez.
Atletico Tucuman arrive with poor away numbers — a long winless run on the road — and recent form has been fragile (four defeats in seven league matches). On top of that they are likely to miss key forwards Leandro Diaz and Ruiz Rodriguez, which weakens their chance to create and finish chances.
Why the pick: Home form, attacking balance and missing opposition strikers favour Belgrano to take the three points.
BET: Belgrano -0.5 @ 1.81
Gimnasia de Mendoza vs Independiente
Short summary: Both teams have defensive issues and recent matches have produced goals. Expect an open game and goals to be scored from both sides.
Gimnasia de Mendoza have lost four of their last five and will be missing experienced defender Ezequiel Munoz, which weakens their defensive stability at home. They need a positive result to halt a poor run.
Independiente have also been vulnerable recently and conceded in a late 2-3 defeat just three days before. Their recent matches indicate an inclination to be involved in higher-scoring affairs, and travel plus fixture congestion could leave them exposed.
Why the pick: Missing defenders, recent high-scoring results for both teams and a likelihood of an open match make the market for goals attractive.
BET: OVER 1.75 @ 1.81
