Why Bet on the River Plate?
River is surprisingly underperforming after their wonderful run in the first phase. The team comes from three wins, one draw, and three losses, but most negative results are recent.
The Millonario finished the first phase as the top team in group A, and we expected them to continue that hot streak during this second phase, but it simply hasn’t been the case.
The team has been struggling lately. All of the losses and the draw came in their last five matches, which means they are currently going in a downward spiral.
However, this could be the chance they needed.
Why Bet on Sarmiento?
The visitors are also coming from three wins, one draw, and three losses. However, the team achieved the 13th spot in Group B during the Copa de la Liga, so the fact that they have changed gears and gotten three victories in their most recent outings is surprising enough to be happy for them.
Sarmiento comes into the match with the opposite momentum from River Plate, as they started the season pretty slowly, with draws and losses in their first two matches, but now, they have landed all their victories in the last five.
The thing here is that Sarmiento hasn’t been as effective with their offense as they’d like to be, and their defense has been able to hold on, without showing anything to be too worried about.
Final Betting Analysis: River Plate vs. Sarmiento
River Plate is in a result crisis, but they keep being a solid team at home. There, they have evaded the loss this semester, although their last result was an underwhelming draw with Lanus. In this sense, is fair to think their level is on a frank decline.
Whatever the case, another matchday without a victory could put Martin Demichellis’s job at stake, so we expect another attitude.
Since 2015, they have played only seven times. River won four times, while there’s a solitary victory for Sarmiento and a couple of draws. Their last game was a 0-2 victory for the Millonario.
Sarmiento will make things difficult for the locals, but we’ll go for a 2-1 win.
Go for a victory for the locals at 1.4. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $40 for a total payout of $140.
