Belgrano
- Belgrano have found some serious form across their last ten games, winning seven, drawing one and losing two across all competitions.
- The hosts have won four and lost just one of their last five home games in all competitions, averaging 2.00 goals per game and conceding just 0.20 goals.
Rosario Central
- Jorge Almirón's Central also bring some form into this game, but they've lost their previous two on the road in consecutive defeats to Independiente Del Valle (0-1, A) in Copa Libertadores and Estudiantes de la Plata (3-0, A) in Copa Argentina.
- It's not all bad for the visitors, as they've won seven, drawn one and lost just two of their previous ten across all competitions, but those consecutive defeats will have put a bit of pressure on the side's away-from-home set-up.
Head-to-Head
Their recent head-to-head record stands at 1-1-1 across their three previous meetings in all competitions.
Betting Insights
- This is a tough game to call at the odds, as Belgrano are 2.62, Central are 3.0 and the draw is 2.82.
- The under 2.5 goals market at 1.38 and both teams to score - No at 1.55 are highlighted.
Prediction
- Belgrano have the form edge and have won their most recent game against Central in this fixture, so we're taking Zielinski's men to just edge out a victory on Thursday.
- Central will look to play with more width, higher tempo and a stronger press under Almirón, and that should suit Belgrano's compact, pragmatic approach.
