Independiente Rivadavia (away)
Independiente Rivadavia are on a five-game winning streak across all competitions.
Alfredo Berti has led the Mendoza-based side to the summit of the table with 29 points from 13 games, using a 3-4-3 system that is full of tempo and effective in transition.

Betting Insights
Backing Independiente to grind it out in a tight contest and edge it at 2.62 is the preferred option, with Banfield at 2.98.
The Under 2.5 goals market looks appealing at 1.53, given both coaches are disciplined and neither team is likely to run away with this game.
Prediction
Berti’s boys to outsmart Banfield.
The visitors look the best bet to pick up the three points in Monday’s away clash.
