Betting on Platense
Although the end of the season is still far away, Platense needs to add three point to its record, as it is currently 27th in the average ranking, the system used in Argentina to determine who will be relegated. Currently, the Calamar is among the teams that are in the relegation zone.
The team’s start was promising, attaining great results such as a 2-1 win over Independiente in Avellaneda, but then the team reached a draw at home against Atlético Tucumán (1-1), and suffered a loss against Boca Juniors at La Bombonera (1-3) and another one at home against Talleres de Córdoba (2-4).
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Ignacio Arce; Gonzalo Asís, Miguel Jacket, Gastón Suso and Juan Infante; Franco Baldassarra, Jerónimo Cacciabue, Iván Rossi and Nicolás Castro; Vicente Taborda and Nicolás Servetto.
Betting on Central Cordoba
Meanwhile, the team from Santiago del Estero has just won its first victory in the Argentine League, as last Monday it defeated Gabriel Milito’s Argentinos Juniors 1-0, with a goal scored by Ciro Rius after a formidable run by the young Lucas Besozzi.
Although the team got away with the victory, the numbers indicate that it might have not deserved it. In fact, Central Córdoba only had 24% of the ball possession, attempted six shots on goal (contrasted with 16 shots on goal from Argentinos), of which only one was effective. During that match, there were many changes due to physical problems, but all of those players could arrive without problems for the match against Platense.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Marcos Ledesma; Brian Blais, Fabio Pereyra, Gonzalo Goñi and Gustavo Canto; Leandro Maciel and Mauro Pittón; Ciro Rius, Brian Farioli and Lucas Besozzi; and Gonzalo Torres.
JefeBet Prediction
Platense vs Central Cordoba have only met three times, of which the teams drew on two occasions and Platense won one (2-0 at home in the 2022 season).
El Calamar has more assets than the team from Santiago del Estero, and it needs to get away a victory no matter what it takes. For this reason, at JefeBet we believe that Platense will find the best version of itslefs, the one it showed in previous matches, and that it will get the three points in this match.
Prediction: Platense wins 3-0
