Match Preview
Independiente Rivadavia hosts Newell's Old Boys in what promises to be an intriguing clash at the Estadio Juan Bautista Gargantini on Sunday. Rivadavia’s recent form has been inconsistent, with just one win in their last five matches (LLDWL), while Newell's Old Boys have shown a slight improvement, managing to secure a win in their last outing after three draws (DDDLW). Historically, these teams have had a competitive rivalry, with Newell's winning two of the last ten encounters, although the most recent match ended in a draw.
One key angle to consider is the defensive vulnerabilities of both sides. Rivadavia has struggled to keep clean sheets, and with Newell's showing a tendency to score, the odds of 2.2 for both teams to find the net (BTTS) could be worth exploring. Additionally, with the over 2.5 goals market priced at 2.63, the likelihood of an open game seems plausible, especially given the attacking potential of Newell's. Expect a closely contested match, but one that could see goals at both ends.
