Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think there's minimal chance that this fixture will have 4+ goals, and the odds and stats align with our predictive algorithm on this one. River Plate and Estudiantes haven't typically served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in Primera División individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.22.
