Prediction
- We think Platense’s extra intensity and pressing game will wear Santa Fe out as the game progresses and believe Zunino’s men will find the rhythm in this clash, although we are going to cover our bets by adding over 2.5 goals and both teams to not score to the win selection.
- Platense should keep a clean sheet in this one as they are the more positive team, but neither side is prolific enough to guarantee a goal-fest.
