Primera División stats and tips
Aldosivi v Estudiantes - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Aldosivi will be hoping not to add to the 4 times they have already been losing at both HT and FT this season when they square off against Estudiantes on Saturday. A. Yllana's side already lead the rest of Primera División in that area, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss Eduardo Rodrigo Domínguez , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
Defensa v Barracas - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Estadio Norberto Tito Tomaghello may be anticipating action at both ends on Saturday, and rightly so if Barracas Central's recent record is anything to go by. There have been a goal in both nets in 3 of their 5 Primera División matches this season, a record matched by no other team in the competition.
Central Cor v Belgrano - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Estadio Alfredo Terrera is the venue as Belgrano and Central Cordoba SdE go head-to-head on Saturday night, in what could prove to be a real crowd-pleaser. Jacek Zielinski's side have the highest number of score draws of any club in the league - 2 in 5 outings. An extension of that record has best odds of 5.00.
Racing Club v Argentinos - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring games aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Argentinos Juniors have had too many chances to test that theory this campaign. 5 of their side's matches in Primera División have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Gustavo Adolfo Costas Makeira and his Real Racing Club side be capable of adding some goals into this fixture on Sunday? Or will it be same old same old?
Newells v Rosario - Double Chance - away win or draw
Ariel Enrique Holan and his Rosario Central team have gained a convenient way of taking something from pretty much every Primera División game they play. They're unbeaten in 6 in Primera División now, so Mariano Soso and his Newell's Old Boys charges will need to be on top of their game if they're going to get anything at Estadio Marcelo Alberto Bielsa on Sunday.
River Plate v Lanus - Double Chance - home win or draw
Lanús simply have not been able to find a way past River Plate in the Primera División in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 5 occasions since 2018, and River Plate have been unbeaten in them all. Sunday's game at Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespu could be a really difficult one for Ricardo Alberto Zielinski & co.
Gimnasia v SM San Juan - Both Teams To Score - no
If we trust the form book, we can predict at least one goalkeeper to earn a clean sheet at Estadio Juan Carmelo Zerillo on Monday, as Diego Simeone and Raúl Adolfo Antuña's sides clash. Gimnasia La Plata have had the highest number of matches where one team or more has failed to find the back of the net (i.e. BTTS no) in Primera División so far this term - 5 out of 5 played. Both bosses will just be desperate that it isn't their side that draws a blank.
Sarmiento v Deportivo Riestra - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It may not be an honour they're all that proud of, but Deportivo Riestra currently lead all other teams in Primera División when it comes to games in which they have been level at both HT and FT this campaign, with their tally now at 3 in 5 outings. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line versus Sarmiento at Estadio Eva Perón de Junín on Monday, in a game that could see yet another stalemate.
Platense v Independiente - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
S. Gómez won't be looking forward to the prospect of playing Independiente in Primera División on Monday. Julio César Vaccari's side have been ahead at halftime and gone on to secure the win at final whistle in more games than any other side in the Primera División this term - 4 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a long night for Platense, and that backing Independiente in the halftime fulltime market would be a great shout at odds of 4.33.
Instituto v San Lorenzo - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under
Fans travelling to this Tuesday to watch San Lorenzo and Instituto might already be concerned about a boring morning, and rightly so. Miguel Ángel Russo's charges have produced 2 nil-nils this term, the most of any team in Primera División. Will anybody find the net? You can bet against it at leading odds of 6.00.
Velez v Godoy Cruz - Double Chance - home win or draw
Godoy Cruz simply have not been able to find a way past Vélez Sarsfield in the Primera División in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 6 occasions since 2021, and Vélez Sarsfield have remained unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Estadio José Amalfitani could be another hard one for E. Pedernera & co.
Boca Juniors v Aldosivi - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming game between Aldosivi and Boca Juniors could be worth a look. A. Yllana's side have lost 1 games this term in which both teams have found the net. That's the most in Primera División.
