- Under 2 @ 1.95 (Sarmiento vs Talleres)
Deportivo Riestra vs River Plate
Deportivo Riestra were on the verge of pulling off an impressive victory last week but conceded a stoppage-time equalizer in their 1-1 draw against Gimnasia LP. They remain winless in six games, though they sit in the playoff zone with 12 points. Despite their struggles, Riestra boasts a remarkable unbeaten streak at home, spanning 16 matches (seven wins, nine draws). Their defensive resilience at their base is notable, and they are expected to field a full-strength squad for this game.
Meanwhile, River Plate managed a hard-fought 1-0 win over Atlético Tucumán in their last match. However, their performances this season have been underwhelming, though they sit in third place in Group B with 18 points. On the road, River has claimed one win and three draws so far, which reflects their inconsistency away from home.
Considering River’s shaky form and Riestra’s unbeaten home record, the hosts could cover the handicap with their usual defensive steadiness.
Bet: Deportivo Riestra +1 @ 1.77
Estudiantes vs Newell’s
Estudiantes were dealt their first defeat of the season last Sunday, falling 1-0 to Defensa y Justicia due to a late goal. This loss ended their impressive 11-match unbeaten streak (six wins, five draws) and displaced them from the top of Group A. Nevertheless, they’ve been a strong home team, earning 13 points from their last 15 available at their stadium.
On the other hand, Newell’s Old Boys continue to face challenges. Their latest 0-0 draw against Belgrano was a lackluster display, and they’ve only managed one win from their last six matches. Sitting just barely above the relegation zone, their inconsistency and the absence of captain Ever Banega could spell trouble as they face a resilient Estudiantes at home.
Estudiantes are likely to bounce back, taking advantage of Newell’s struggles.
Bet: Estudiantes -0.75 @ 1.85
Rosario Central vs Gimnasia
Rosario Central managed a 0-0 draw against Talleres last Monday in what was a tough battle. This result kept them in second place of Group B, only two points behind leaders Independiente. Though Rosario remains a formidable opponent at home with four straight wins, their recent inability to find the back of the net is a worrying sign.
Conversely, Gimnasia LP salvaged a 1-1 draw in their last match thanks to a stoppage-time own goal from their opponents. They have shown some consistency by losing only once in six games, keeping themselves in the playoff zone.
Given Rosario’s dip in form and Gimnasia’s solid run, the visitors are worth backing to secure at least a draw in this matchup.
Bet: Gimnasia +0.5 @ 1.97
Sarmiento vs Talleres
Sarmiento faced heartbreak in their last match as they conceded a last-gasp equalizer to draw 1-1 with Barracas Central. Despite their struggles, they remain resilient at home, going unbeaten in six matches, with two wins and four draws in that stretch.
Talleres, on the other hand, are enduring a disappointing campaign. A goalless draw against Rosario Central last Monday extended their winless streak to four games. The 2024 Liga Profesional runners-up have been lackluster offensively, scoring only one goal in their last five matches.
Given Talleres’ scoring struggles and Sarmiento’s solid home performances, this game is likely to be a tight, low-scoring affair.
Bet: UNDER 2 @ 1.95
