Our prediction is: Lanús win or draw
Lanús has been a thorn in the side of many teams of late, and even away from home, they are quite a dangerous opponent for anyone. So as they travel to face LDU, our betting tip is Lanús win or draw on the Double Chance market, which means they can either win or draw for the bet to win.
It would honestly not be that big of a surprise if Lanús emerged victorious against LDU given the quality they've shown, but claiming a point is a much more realistic goal.
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.
