What to expect

We expect about 0.9 goals from Barracas Central and 0.9 from Rosario Central, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 1.9 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.

Barracas Central come into this on two straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Under 2.5 goals. This has the look of a cagey, low-scoring game — around 1.9 goals in total (xG 0.9-1.0), keeping it under more often than not (about 64%). Clear chances should be at a premium.

We put the chance of that landing at about 64 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.41, which works out at about 71 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
Barracas Central have won three of their last five.
Rosario Central are unbeaten in their last five — three wins and two draws.
Four of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
Both teams scored in two of the last five meetings.

One thing to watch

One end-to-end spell, or a defensive mistake, and the goals can pile up before either side settles. The price is shorter than our own read of about 64%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
