Betting on Independiente
All the expectation that existed before the beginning of the tournament was exhausted in record time, not only due to poor results, but also due to a very poor sporting performance delivered by the team. Leandro Stillitano’s management of the team is hanging by a thread, especially after the very bad match the team played against Banfield, which it was unable to beat despite playing almost the entire game with an extra player.
The coach has varied his schemes and names since the first date, and this not only did not produce any results, but also accentuated the confusion. Independiente is the team that has scored the fewest goals in the five matchdays, something that is reflected in its statistics: only two goals for, one against, and another one from a penalty spot.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Rodrigo Rey; Luciano Gómez, Sergio Barreto, Ayrton Costa, Damián Pérez; Iván Marcone, Agustín Mulet; Baltasar Barcia, Matías Giménez, Javier Vallejo; Martín Cauteruccio.
Betting on Instituto
After spending several years in the Argentine promotion, the Instituto fanbase was finally able to enjoy a First Division win when the team defeated Newell’s 3-1. The team is still the same as the one that made it to the top flight last year, and this is evident in the team coached by Lucas Bovaglio.
Instituto records two wins, two draws and one loss, and the team is pleased with the performance of experienced striker Adrián Martínez, who arrived for this tournament from Brazil and who has two goals to his name so far.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Jorge Carranza; Giuliano Cerato, Leonel Mosevich, Fernando Alarcón, Sebastián Corda; Gabriel Graciani, Nicolás Linares, Gastón Lodico, Braian Cuello; Santiago Rodríguez, Adrián Martínez.
JefeBet Prediction
Independiente’s statistics are damning, as the team has suffered defeats in both of its home matches. Moreover, its performance does not inspire much confidence either. At JefeBet we believe that nerves will play against the team, and that although it will not suffer a defeat, it will a draw in this match against Instituto.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
