The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Vélez Sarsfield win or draw

Even though Vélez Sarsfield will be the away side in this matchup, we do not expect them to go down in defeat. We recommend betting on Vélez Sarsfield to win or draw in the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw will win the bet.

Vélez Sarsfield does have its share of flaws, but Deportivo Riestra has also looked quite vulnerable of late, and not even being at home might be enough for them to avoid dropping points to Vélez Sarsfield.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

It's hard to overlook the part that defence will play in this match. The capable defending of both sides will be tough for opposing offences, which is why it could be a low-scoring affair.

That overwhelming defence is also a great reason to go 'no' on the Both teams to score market.
