Monday's Argentine Primera Division predictions including Racing Club vs. Argentinos Juniors

sportsmole.co.uk, 20 May 2024, 05:10
San Lorenzo vs. Lanus (Monday, 11.00pm)

San Lorenzo can extend their winning run at Estadio Pedro Bidegain to three matches in all competitions when they host Lanus on Monday.

Both sides lost their opening match in the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division campaign, with El Ciclon suffering a narrow 1-0 defeat versus Deportivo Riestra and Lanus losing 2-0 to Independiente Rivadavia.

We say: San Lorenzo 1-0 Lanus

San Lorenzo seem to have rediscovered their scoring touch in the Libertadores, and we believe that will breathe new life into their attack on Monday and give them an advantage against Lanus.

Estudiantes vs. Deportivo Riestra (Monday, 11.00pm)

Monday will mark the first-ever meeting between Estudiantes and Deportivo Riestra in the Argentine Primera Division, with that match taking place at Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi.

An early goal in their first match of the second phase was all El Leon needed to defeat Tigre 1-0, while Deportivo won by that same score and in similar fashion on matchday one of this round against San Lorenzo.

We say: Estudiantes 3-0 Deportivo Riestra

Estudiantes were among the strongest backlines in the opening phase of this competition, while Deportivo have struggled against counteracting sides, and we expect the home team to expose that weakness in this match.

Rosario vs. Tigre (Tuesday, 1.15am)

Two sides seeking their first points in the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division campaign will meet on Monday as Rosario Central welcome Tigre to Estadio Gigante de Arroyito.

In their opening match this round, Canalla lost 3-2 to Argentinos Juniors, while Tigre were beaten yet again, 1-0 at home by Estudiantes.

We say: Rosario Central 2-0 Tigre

Tigre have managed to keep their last few matches close, but they have been virtually non-existent in the attacking third and rarely look dangerous in possession.

While Rosario have been relatively inconsistent from one match to the next, they have been much more decisive in front of goal lately, and we believe they will find a way through the visitors' backline.

Racing vs. Argentinos Jrs (Tuesday, 1.15am)

A pair of sides currently riding lengthy unbeaten normal-time runs in the Argentine Primera Division will face each other on Monday as Racing Club take on Argentinos Juniors at Estadio Presidente Peron.

Coming into this encounter, the Avellaneda club have points in five successive domestic encounters, playing to a 4-4 draw with Belgrano in their opening second-round fixture, while El Bicho defeated Rosario Central 3-2, extending their unbeaten run to seven matches, not counting the first-round playoffs.

We say: Racing Club 2-0 Argentinos Juniors

These are two dangerous attacking sides, but Racing seem to be a lot sharper on the back end at home, particularly when facing Argentinos, which is why we are giving them a slight edge.
