Final Betting Analysis: Boca Juniors vs. River Plate

Something tells us that Boca Juniors will not find a way to score a goal against River Plate who, with suffering, could perhaps score and maintain the advantage.

With this in mind, we’re predicting a close 0-1 lead for the visitors at the end. A single goal will be enough for the ‘Millonario’ to get a lot closer to the top of the scoreboard.

Look for a straight win on the Moneyline River. If you put $100 on River Plate at +118, you’ll be looking at a $118 win with a total payout of $218.
