Primera División stats and tips
U Santa Fe v Central Cor - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Thanks to recent results, Unión Santa Fe's loyal supporters expect high standards from their club and, according to our tipsters, they may not be disappointed on Tuesday morning. 5 of our bettors are betting that L. Madelón's XI will claim victory as S. Domínguez's Central Cordoba SdE visit Estadio 15 de Abril. Will the wisdom of the crowd be proved correct? Or could we be set for a big upset?
Tal Cordoba v Lanus - Double Chance - away win or draw
Talleres Córdoba have found something of a bogey team in Lanús in the Primera División in recent years. The two clubs have played on 12 occasions since 2018, and Lanús have been unbeaten in them all. Wednesday's game at Estadio Juan Domingo Perón could be a tricky one for J. Sampaoli Moya & co.
Racing Club v Banfield - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Real Racing Club's recent matches in Primera División have delivered goals and thrills along the way, but it has been too long since J. Vojvoda's players treated their fans to a ding-dong battle with goals galore. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 25 matches.
Aldosivi v Tig - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Aldosivi will be hoping not to add to the 8 times they have already been behind in at both HT and FT this term when they face Tigre on Saturday. I. Damonte's players already top the rest of Primera División in that area, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss D. Dabove may not feel the same way, however.
Estudiantes v Gimnasia - Double Chance - home win or draw
Gimnasia La Plata have found something of a bogey team in Estudiantes in the Primera División in recent years. The two clubs have played on 7 occasions since 2023, and Estudiantes have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes could be another hard one for G. Pereyra & co.
Belgrano v Independiente Rivadavia - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at will be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and with good reason if Independiente Rivadavia's past record is anything to go by. There have been a goal in both nets in 15 of their 21 Primera División matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
Newells v Deportivo Riestra - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring games aren't always boring, but fans of Deportivo Riestra have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 18 of their side's matches in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will F. Kudelka and his Newell's Old Boys side be able to inject goals into this clash on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?
Platense v Boca Juniors - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López plays host as Boca Juniors and Platense go head-to-head on Sunday morning, in what could well be a proper ding-dong battle. R. Arruabarrena's side have the highest number of score draws of any side in the league - 7 in 21 outings. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.75.
Central Cor v Instituto - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Central Cordoba SdE have been Primera División's entertainers this campaign, at least in terms of delivering high scoring fixtures. No other team can boast more than their record of having taken part in 1 over 5.5 goal games this term. Can they make that 2 when they play Instituto on Sunday evening? With odds of 29.00 on offer, it might be worth a go.
Sarmiento v Huracan - Double Chance - away win or draw
Sarmiento have found something of a bogey team in Huracán in the Primera División in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 6 occasions since 2021, and Huracán have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Eva Perón de Junín could be another hard one for F. Sava & co.
River Plate v Argentinos - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of River Plate boss E. Coudet on Sunday. His side face Argentinos Juniors having been beaten in each of their last 5 Primera División matches.
Barracas v Rosario - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Estudiantes Rio Cuarto v A. Tucuman - Both Teams To Score & Result - away+away
If you like backing goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming clash between Atlético Tucumán and Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto could be worth a look. J. Falcioni's side have lost 7 games this campaign in which both clubs have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in Primera División.
Lanus v Independiente - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Lanús and Independiente have laboured through a number of cagey affairs in recent years. With each of their last 9 Primera División matches having under 2.5 goals, the strikers picked by M. Pellegrino and G. Quinteros Desábato may be in for a long day night.
Velez v Defensa - Double Chance - home win or draw
Defensa y Justicia have found something of a bogey team in Vélez Sarsfield in the Primera División in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 6 occasions since 2021, and Vélez Sarsfield have been unbeaten in them all. Monday's game at Estadio José Amalfitani could be a really difficult one for J. Vaccari & co.
Aldosivi v U Santa Fe - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Aldosivi will be looking to avoid adding to the 8 times they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this campaign when they square off against Unión Santa Fe on Friday. I. Damonte's team already lead the rest of Primera División in that category, and won't want to make their record any worse. Opposing boss L. Madelón , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
A. Tucuman v Instituto - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like tipping goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Atlético Tucumán and Instituto might well warrant a closer look. J. Falcioni's side have lost 7 games this campaign in which both sides have found the net. That's a record in Primera División.
Gimnasia v Gimnasia Mendoza - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
D. Franco Gatti won't be relishing going up against Gimnasia La Plata in Primera División on Saturday. G. Pereyra's side have been ahead at the break and gone on to secure the win at FT more often than any other team in the Primera División this term - 9 times in total. That record suggests it may be a demoralising night for Gimnasia y Esgrima Mendoza, and that backing Gimnasia La Plata in the HT FT market would be a smart move at odds of 3.00.
Independiente v Independiente Rivadavia - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at Estadio Libertadores de América will be banking on action at both ends on Saturday, and they're right to, if Independiente Rivadavia's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have scored in 15 of their 21 Primera División fixtures this season, more than any side in the competition.
Huracan v Deportivo Riestra - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring matches aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Deportivo Riestra have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 18 of their side's encounters in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will D. Martínez and his Huracán team be able to inject goalmouth action into this fixture on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
Sarmiento v Estudiantes - Both Teams To Score - no
If we trust the form book, we can predict at least one goalkeeper to earn a clean sheet at Estadio Eva Perón de Junín on Sunday, as A. Medina Reobasco and F. Sava's teams meet. Estudiantes have had the highest number of games where one team or more has failed to find the back of the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Primera División so far this term - 17 out of 21 played. Both managers will just be desperate that it isn't their team that fails to register.
Belgrano v Defensa - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It might not be a record they're especially enamoured with, but Defensa y Justicia currently lead all opposition in Primera División when it comes to fixtures drawn at both halftime and fulltime this term, with their tally now at 7 in 20 matches. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency to the test against Belgrano at on Sunday, in a fixture that could see yet another stalemate.
Racing Club v Boca Juniors - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Estadio Presidente Juan Domingo is the venue as Boca Juniors and Real Racing Club meet on Monday morning, in what could well be a proper ding-dong battle. R. Arruabarrena's side have the highest number of BTTS + draws of any club in the competition - 7 in 21 games. An extension of that record has best odds of 4.50.
Tig v Central Cor - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Central Cordoba SdE have been Primera División's entertainers this term, at least in terms of producing high scoring games. No other club can boast more than their record of having played in 1 over 5.5 goal games this campaign. Can they make that 2 when they play Tigre on Monday night? With odds of 23.00 on offer, it could be worth backing.
