Velez finds itself in a dire situation this season, with one of its worst campaigns in history. The team sits at 22nd place with only 18 points, just one point above the relegation zone. However, there are five other teams with the same number of points between them and the last-place team, Arsenal Sarandí, which means that the fight for permanence will be an exciting one to watch.

In their last match, Vélez lost 2-0 to Belgrano while playing away. This result led to the resignation of Ricardo Gareca as the head coach of the team. Despite having 63% ball possession, Vélez only managed a single shot on target, while Belgrano created five clear chances.

However, with the renewed energy and mindset that new interim head coach Marcelo Bravo brings, Velez is well-positioned to turn things around. They have already shown their potential by winning 5-1 against Deportivo Español in the Copa Argentina during the week. With that in mind, Codere is offering a juicy (+205) payout for the home team’s victory, which means you could win $205 for every $100 bet placed. So why wait? Head over to

Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Gastón Gómez; Tomás Guidara, Diego Godín, Miguel Brizuela, Francisco Ortega; Damián Fernández, José Florentín; Christian Ordoñez, Elías Cabrera, Lenny Lobato; Lucas Pratto.

Argentinos Juniors has had an impressive season so far, having already secured a spot in the next phase of the Copa Libertadores, while also standing at 12th place in the domestic league, with 26 points to their name.

In their last match, they secured a 1-0 victory over Platense as the hosts, thanks to a goal from Leonardo Heredia. Argentinos Juniors controlled 62% of ball possession and made an impressive 22 attempts on goal, although only four found the target. In contrast, the visitors only managed seven attempts and scored with two.

Out of the 28 teams competing in the league, Argentinos Juniors currently has the seventh-best defense, having conceded only 17 goals. That’s why Codere is offering a tempting (+155) payout for the under (0.5) goals of the home team, which means you could win a significant $155 for every $100 placed on this outcome.

Probable lineup (3-5-2): Alexis Arias; Kevin MacAllister, Miguel Torrén, Lucas Villalba; José Herrera, Alan Rodríguez, Francisco González, Leonardo Heredia, Franco Moyano; Thiago Nuss, Gastón Verón.

The odds of a draw are currently sitting at (+195), which means you could win a generous $195 for every $100 bet.
