Betting Insights
- Jujuy have conceded an average of 1.57 goals away from home, but have only scored 0.86 goals themselves - which is why they may not find a way through an organised Atlanta side.
- The home win odds of 2.2 look appealing for this clash between two of the division’s best sides and a bet on under 2.5 goals at 1.36 is advisable, while both teams not to score looks a solid bet at 1.57.
Prediction
Atlanta are in good form and look likely to have the upper hand in this one, but both sides are solid and a low-scoring game is expected .
