Primera División stats and tips
Barracas v Lanus - Double Chance - away win or draw
Ricardo Alberto Zielinski and his Lanús troops have found a useful knack of claiming something from just about every Primera División game they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in Primera División now, so R. Insúa and his Barracas Central team will have their work cut out if they're to stand any chance at Estadio Claudio Chiqui Tapia on Friday.
Estudiantes v Argentinos - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Argentinos Juniors will have to be at their very best if they're to get anything at Estadio Ciudad de La Plata. Home wins occur regularly in Primera División, and it's assumed by many that Estudiantes and their manager Eduardo Rodrigo Domínguez will claim exactly that as they face P. Guede Barriero's side on Friday night. 5 of KickOff's members have bet on the home win, with best odds of 2.10, and our 47.83 suggests there's 47.83% probability of them being proved correct.
Banfield v Sarmiento - Double Chance - away win or draw
It has been a dismal set of results for Banfield and their faithful followers, with their last Primera División win now coming 7 matches ago. Boss Gustavo Adolfo Munúa Vera needs to find a solution, and sooner rather than later. Will Sarmiento at Estadio Florencio Solá on Saturday come too soon, or be a turning point?
San Lorenzo v Tig - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
There have been 3 goals or less in each of San Lorenzo's last 16 Primera División games. As they face S. Domínguez's Tigre at Estadio Pedro Bidegaín on Saturday, the smart money should be backing another low-scoring affair.
Instituto v Godoy Cruz - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring encounters aren't always boring, but fans of Godoy Cruz have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this term. 31 of their side's fixtures in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Diego Omar Dabove and his Instituto team be capable of adding some goals into this match on Saturday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
Rosario v Belgrano - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at Estadio Dr. Lisandro de la Torre will be banking on action at both ends on Saturday, and rightly so if Belgrano's recent record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 23 of their 40 Primera División matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
Boca Juniors v Independiente - Double Chance - home win or draw
Fernando Rubén Gago and his Boca Juniors side have found a useful habit of getting something from almost every Primera División fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 6 in Primera División now, so Julio César Vaccari and his Independiente side will have their work cut out if they're to stand any chance at Estadio Alberto José Armando on Saturday.
Racing Club v River Plate - Double Chance - away win or draw
Real Racing Club have found something of a bogey team in River Plate in the Primera División in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 5 occasions since 2019, and River Plate have remained unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Presidente Juan Domingo could be a tricky one for Gustavo Adolfo Costas Makeira & co.
Defensa v U Santa Fe - Double Chance - home win or draw
Pablo Daniel de Muner and his Defensa y Justicia side have gained a handy way of claiming something from pretty much every Primera División match they play. They're unbeaten in 8 in Primera División now, so C. González Peret and his Unión Santa Fe charges will have their work cut out if they're going to get anything at Estadio Norberto Tito Tomaghello on Sunday.
Platense v Gimnasia - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Gimnasia La Plata have taken part in some low-scoring games in Primera División recently. There have been under 2.5 goals in all of Marcelo Fabián Méndez Russo's side's last 7 outings and, with S. Gómez and his Platense ahead on Sunday night, their strikers would be well advised to put in some extra graft on the training ground.
Tal Cordoba v Newells - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Few will have missed the impressive form of Talleres Córdoba of late. They've beaten the opposition in 5 consecutive Primera División matches, and Alexander Jesús Medina Reobasco will be going all out to continue that form as they go into battle with Newell's Old Boys at Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes on Sunday night.
Velez v Huracan - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring encounters aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Huracán have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 32 of their side's games in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Sebastián Ariel Méndez Pardiñas and his Vélez Sarsfield side be able to inject spice into this clash on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
A. Tucuman v Central Cor - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Atlético Tucumán and Central Cordoba SdE have been involved in a number of tight clashes in recent years. With each of their last 6 Primera División clashes ending with under 2.5 goals, the attackers picked by Facundo Sava and O. De Felippe may be in for a long day morning.
Independiente Rivadavia v Deportivo Riestra - Half Time / Full Time - home / home
Anyone looking to bet on the half time/full time market should pay attention to Independiente Rivadavia. Alfredo Jesús Berti's side has been impressively dominant in recent Primera División outings, winning at half time in each of their last 3 and going on to win them all at FT. Deportivo Riestra on Tuesday morning will be one to watch.
