Betting on Central Cordoba
Central Córdoba has only managed to secure one win in its last five matches, arriving to this game without a victory in its last two games. The team recently drew 2-2 against Barracas Central after taking the lead in the first half.
After playing 16 matches, the team has a record of five wins, four draws, and seven defeats. Central Cordoba is one of the teams with the third-highest number of losses, representing 43.75% of its total matches.
Although the team will play this match at home, it cannot allow itself to get too confident, knowing it has not managed to win in its last three matches, recording one draw and two defeats. In addition, the team has scored just five goals in this condition, which makes it the second team with the lowest number of goals scored.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Marcos Ledesma; Brian Blasi, Gonzalo Goñi, Gustavo Canto, Marcelo Benítez; Federico Jourdan, Enzo Kalinski, Mauro Pittón, Lucas Besozzi; Facundo Castelli, Lucas Gamba.
Betting on Union
Unión is having a terrible season, attaining only nine points out of 15 matches played. Its record includes one win, six draws, and eight losses, which puts this team in last place of the overall standings. Its last victory was attained in early March, and now, the team is in the middle of a negative streak of 10 winless matches across all competitions.
Unión’s defense has allowed the third-highest amount of goals, with 22. However, the team’s weakest area is its attack, as it has only managed to scored eight goals, which is the lowest number in the league. If we consider its recent away record, Unión does not give much hope of getting a victory on the road. In fact, the team’s last away win dates back to July 2022, and it is currently on a 19-match winless streak playing away across all competitions.
Probable lineup (4-4-1-1): Santiago Mele; Federico Vera, Franco Calderón, Oscar Piris, Lucas Esquivel; Imanol Machuca, Enzo Roldán, Yeison Gordillo, Kevin Zenón; Ezequiel Cañete; Mauro Luna Diale.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams have collected a high number of defeats, making them unreliable. However, if we look at their position in the overall standings before this game, we find that the Central Cordoba team is superior to Union, which allows us to slightly lean towards the Santiago del Estero team winning this match.
JefeBet predicts a victory for the home team, not only because of its current record but also because it has not lost in its previous three matches in the Primera Division, recording two wins in the most recent ones.
However, do not expect many goals being scored since both teams have a low average in that regard. At DraftKings, Central Cordoba’s Moneyline has a odds of(+150), so if you bet $100 you would have $150 more in your pocket. What are you waiting for?
