Primera División stats and tips
Newells v Platense - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Newell's Old Boys boss S. Gómez on Wednesday. His players face Platense having lost each of their last 3 Primera División matches.
Sarmiento v Racing Club - Double Chance - away win or draw
Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Real Racing Club’s happy followers watched their team get beaten in Primera División. G. Costas Makeira’s men are now unbeaten in 5 games, and he'll be full of belief that they can keep that streak running against Sarmiento at Estadio Eva Perón de Junín on Wednesday morning. Best value odds of 1.25 can be taken advantage of to back Real Racing Club to either win or draw.
Argentinos v Rosario - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
There have been 3 goals or less in all of Argentinos Juniors's last 11 Primera División matches. As they face J. Almirón Quintana's Rosario Central at Estadio Diego Armando Maradona on Wednesday, the smart money may well be backing that run to continue.
Banfield v Gimnasia - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
The 5+ goal game may be a rare beast, but Gimnasia La Plata's dedicated supporters have now been waiting 51 games to see their club take part in one. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book. Will the long-overdue deluge of goals finally arrive on Wednesday night, as they face P. Troglio's Banfield at Estadio Florencio Solá? With odds of 1.05 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookmakers certainly don’t think so.
Boca Juniors v San Lorenzo - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
San Lorenzo have played out some low-scoring games in Primera División of late. There have been under 2.5 goals in every one of D. Ayude's side's last 7 outings and, with C. Úbeda and his Boca Juniors ahead on Wednesday night, their forwards really should be putting in some additional practice in the build-up.
A. Tucuman v Aldosivi - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Atlético Tucumán boss L. Pusineri on Thursday. His team faces Aldosivi having been beaten in each of their last 3 Primera División outings.
Independiente Rivadavia v Barracas - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at will be banking on action at both ends on Thursday, and with good reason if Independiente Rivadavia's past record is anything to go by. There have been a goal in both nets in 6 of their 8 Primera División fixtures this season, the largest number in the competition.
Defensa v Central Cor - Double Chance - home win or draw
Happy days! It has now been a long while since Defensa y Justicia’s merry followers watched their lads get beaten in Primera División. M. Soso’s squad is now unbeaten in 8 outings, and he'll be full of belief that they can keep going against Central Cordoba SdE at Estadio Norberto Tito Tomaghello on Thursday night. Best value odds of 1.20 can be grabbed to back Defensa y Justicia to either win or draw.
Deportivo Riestra v Gimnasia Mendoza - Double Chance - away win or draw
Following your football club can be a thankless task, and Deportivo Riestra’s dogged old follows know that feeling especially well at the moment. Their club, led by J. Benítez, has now failed to win any of their last 12 Primera División matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against Gimnasia y Esgrima Mendoza at Estadio Guillermo Laza on Thursday night. Backing opposition gaffer A. Broggi to add to their misery by leading his lads to anything other than a defeat is available at best odds of 1.62.
Estudiantes Rio Cuarto v Belgrano - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Games with 5 goals or more don’t come around every day, but Belgrano's hardy followers have now waited 52 matches to watch their side take part in one. Certainly they could be forgiven for craving some proper excitement by now. Will the long-overdue deluge of goals finally arrive on Thursday night, as they face I. Delfino's Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto at Estadio Ciudad de Río Cuarto? With odds of 1.04 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookmakers certainly don’t think so.
Tal Cordoba v Instituto - Double Chance - away win or draw
Talleres Córdoba have found something of a bogey team in Instituto in the Primera División in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 5 occasions since 2023, and Instituto have remained unbeaten in them all. Thursday's game at Estadio Juan Domingo Perón could be another hard one for C. Tevez & co.
Huracan v River Plate - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Huracán's recent outings in Primera División have delivered spills and thrills aplenty, but it has been a while since D. Martínez's side gave their followers the kind of goal-fest we all really want to see. There have been under 4.5 goals in each of their last 27 outings.
Estudiantes v Lanus - Double Chance - home win or draw
Trekking across the width and breadth of the country to support your club can be draining, and Lanús’s dogged old follows know that better than most at the moment. Their club, led by M. Pellegrino, is now winless in their previous 5 Primera División matches, and the clouds hardly look like parting against Estudiantes at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi (La Plata, Provincia de Buenos Aires) on Friday night. Backing opposition manager E. Domínguez to extend the run by leading his team to a positive result can be bet on at top odds of 1.25.
Platense v Velez - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Platense and Vélez Sarsfield have played out a number of low-scoring matches in recent years. With each of their last 5 Primera División meetings having under 2.5 goals, the forwards picked by C. González Peret and G. Barros Schelotto may be in for a tough night.
Rosario v Banfield - Double Chance - away win or draw
Rosario Central have found something of a bogey team in Banfield in the Primera División in recent years. The two teams have met on 5 occasions since 2022, and Banfield have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Estadio 15 de Abril could be a really difficult one for J. Almirón Quintana & co.
Gimnasia v Independiente Rivadavia - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Estadio Juan Carmelo Zerillo may be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Sunday, and they're right to, if Independiente Rivadavia's recent record is to be continued. There have been a goal in both nets in 6 of their 8 Primera División fixtures this season, the largest number in the competition.
Belgrano v Tal Cordoba - Double Chance - away win or draw
Belgrano have found something of a bogey team in Talleres Córdoba in the Primera División in recent years. The two teams have clashed on 7 occasions since 2018, and Talleres Córdoba have remained unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Julio César Villagra could be another hard one for R. Zielinski & co.
Aldosivi v Huracan - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Aldosivi have been Primera División's entertainers this season, at least in terms of producing high scoring fixtures. No other team can boast more than their record of having played in 0 over 5.5 goal games this term. Can they bring their tally to 1 when they play Huracán on Monday evening? With odds of 41.00 on offer, it could be one to watch.
Barracas v A. Tucuman - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you fancy a thriller on Monday evening, then the clash between Atlético Tucumán and Barracas Central could be worth checking out. L. Pusineri's team lead Primera División in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 6 of their Primera División games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only a parking of the bus from R. Insúa's men could ruin the spectacle.
San Lorenzo v Defensa - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
San Lorenzo and Defensa y Justicia have played out a number of low-scoring matches in recent years. With each of their last 5 Primera División clashes having under 2.5 goals, the forwards picked by D. Ayude and M. Soso may be in for a long day night.
Racing Club v Estudiantes Rio Cuarto - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
I. Delfino won't be too excited about facing Real Racing Club in Primera División on Monday. G. Costas Makeira's side have been ahead at halftime and gone on to secure the win at fulltime more frequently than any other side in the Primera División this term - 3 times in total. That record suggests there's every chance of it being a difficult night for Estudiantes de Rio Cuarto, and that backing Real Racing Club in the halftime fulltime market would be a strong bet at odds of 1.95.
Instituto v Independiente - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
is the venue as Independiente and Instituto go head-to-head on Tuesday morning, in what could well be a real crowd-pleaser. G. Quinteros Desábato's side have the highest number of score draws of any side in the league - 4 in 8 matches. An extension of that record is available at 5.00.
Central Cor v Deportivo Riestra - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Central Cordoba SdE have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this campaign. 8 of their side's fixtures in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will J. Benítez and his Deportivo Riestra team be able to inject goals into this match on Wednesday? Or will it be more of the same?
A. Tucuman v Gimnasia - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming fixture between Atlético Tucumán and Gimnasia La Plata could warrant a closer look. L. Pusineri's side have lost 4 games this season in which both clubs have got on the scoresheet. That's the most in Primera División.
River Plate v A. Tucuman - Both Teams To Score & Result -
