Argentine Primera División — Quick Tips (Jan 27, 2026)

• Vélez Sarsfield vs Talleres — BET: OVER 1.75 @ 1.81
• Newell’s Old Boys vs Independiente — BET: OVER 1.75 @ 1.77

Vélez Sarsfield vs Talleres

Recent form and team news point toward goals in this one. Vélez started 2026 with a dramatic 91st-minute winner by Tobías Andrada to beat Instituto 1-0, snapping a short winless run, but they remain inconsistent at home (one point from the last 12). The late winner shows resilience, and the probable return of Maher Carrizo to the attack (his transfer didn’t go through) gives Vélez an immediate offensive uplift.

Talleres also opened the season with a 2-1 victory over Newell’s, with new signing Ronaldo Martínez and Valentín Depietri on the scoresheet. Carlos Tévez’s side arrive with momentum and have been productive in recent matches.

With both sides showing attacking intent and Vélez getting a boost up front, this matchup looks likely to produce at least two goals. That makes the OVER 1.75 @ 1.81 a sensible pick.

Newell’s Old Boys vs Independiente

Newell’s have struggled to start the year and remain in poor league form: just one win in nine league matches and worrying home results (only two points from the last 12 at their stadium). Their debut under the Sergio Gómez / Favio Orsi coaching partnership ended in a 2-1 loss to Talleres, and defensive frailties look likely to persist.

Independiente drew 1-1 with Estudiantes in a chaotic opener, playing over 40 minutes with ten men but still preserving a point. That result extended a reasonable unbeaten league run into five matches. They also won their latest away game in league play, showing they can score on the road.

Newell’s remain vulnerable at the back while Independiente have enough attacking quality to test them. Newell’s striker Matías Coccaro should start after his late goal last week, increasing the chance of goals. For those reasons, the OVER 1.75 @ 1.77 is the preferred angle here.
