Betting on Club Atlético River Plate
It’s undeniable that River Plate is the best team of the season in the Argentine League, as shown by its position in the standings. The Millionaire team is currently in the top spot with 37 points, five more than San Lorenzo, its closest rival.
However, it suffered a tough 2-1 defeat against Talleres in the last game, which could have dampened the team’s spirits, especially considering that it ended its good streak of 10 games without a loss.
Therefore, this team will try to turn the page, and what better way to do it than against one of the worst away teams in the tournament. This seems like a good opportunity to bet on the Over (3.5) of the Millionaire team, a betting option that has a (+210) odds in BetMGM.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Franco Armani; Milton Casco, Emanuel Mammana, Leandro González Pírez, Enzo Díaz; Enzo Pérez, Nicolás de la Cruz; Lucas Beltrán, Ignacio Fernández, Ezequiel Barco; Salomón Rondón.
Betting on Club Atlético Platense
Platense has been having a tough season, currently standing at sixteenth place with only 20 out of 48 possible points. It hasn’t found its stride yet and has only achieved intermittent results.
However, under the guidance of coach Martin Palermo, the team is coming into this game with high spirits. The recent 3-0 win against Racing was a major boost, ending a five-game winless streak. Consequently, This team will be looking to replicate this strong performance against heavyweight opponents like River Plate.
To do so, it’ll have to overcome its recent struggles playing away games, as it’s suffered three losses in the last three road games. Additionally, Platense’s away record has only seen it score six goals while conceding eleven.
Possible Lineup (5-3-2): Ramiro Macagno; Nicolás Morgantini, Ignacio Vázquez, Gastón Suso, Marco Pellegrino, Sasha Marcich; Iván Rossi, Franco Díaz, Vicente Taborda; Nicolás Servetto, Mauro Quiroga.
JefeBet Prediction
For this match, there’s no doubt that River Plate is the big favorite to come out victorious. The Millionaire team arrives wounded after losing against Talleres and will do everything possible to get back on the winning track.
On the other hand, Platense, although it managed to secure a definite victory last week, hasn’t been doing very well in its away games. Therefore, at JefeBet, we expect a trouncing from the home team.
Prediction: River Plate Moneyline and Over (RIV 4-0 PLA)
