Boca Juniors v Defensa y Justicia : Primera División match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sun 16th Mar, 21:15 BST, Estadio Alberto José Armando, Buenos Aires

It's an away trip for Pablo Daniel de Muner's Defensa y Justicia side on Sunday night, as they travel to the Estadio Alberto José Armando for a Primera División clash with Fernando Rubén Gago's Boca Juniors. Primera División statistics are the foundation of the predictions you'll find below, with head-to-head performance included too. There's so much to explore, with graphics and odds from leading bookmakers available for the biggest betting markets using the tabs.


Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Under 2.5 goals as a betting market simply means there will only be a maximum of 2 goals scored in total by Boca Juniors and Defensa during the traditional 90 minutes. It's a bet the stats below and the odds are both leaning towards here, and an outcome that we've seen these sides produce before. Without a strong favourite to win the game, our best bet prediction for this one is under 2.5.
