River Plate v Estudiantes : Primera DivisiĆ³n match betting preview, prediction and odds

Sat 1st Mar, 22:15 BST, Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespu, Capital Federal

Marcelo Daniel Gallardo and Eduardo Rodrigo DomĆ­nguez clash in the Primera DivisiĆ³n on Saturday night, as River Plate face Estudiantes at the Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespu. You'll see statistics supporting our top of under 3.5 goals below, but be sure to take a look at the 16 other markets we're covering too. Each has been designed to give you as full a picture as possible, with Primera DivisiĆ³n performances and head to heads (H2Hs) included, so that you're able to make the smartest bet choices. Finally, be sure to get the best odds from one of the UK's biggest bookmakers.


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think there's minimal chance that this fixture will have 4+ goals, and the odds and stats align with our predictive algorithm on this one. River Plate and Estudiantes haven't typically served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in Primera DivisiĆ³n individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're recommending under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.22.

Goal Statistics

River Plate's defensive record is to be admired, Marcelo Daniel Gallardo's men having conceded 1 or less in 9 consecutive Primera DivisiĆ³n matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.1 for Estudiantes makes sense in this context.
