Our prediction is: Gimnasia La Plata to win

Our big betting tip for this match is a Gimnasia La Plata home win. Gimnasia La Plata may not be in the best of form, but we believe they have the quality to pull off a big win against Barracas Central.

Moreover, home support has consistently given Gimnasia La Plata a big boost, and the crowd should be cheering and full of energy throughout this massive match.

Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

Looking at the current form of both teams, betting the 'no' on the Both Teams to Score market seems like the smart way to go.

It's hard to see both teams getting goals in this match. The two defences have been quite solid, while the offences have had a hard time in front of goal. With that combination, this match could very well be a low-scoring affair with one or none of the teams finding the back of the net.
