What to expect

We expect about 0.9 goals from Newells Old Boys and 1.2 from Velez Sarsfield, so Velez Sarsfield come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.1 goals in the game, so we are braced for a tight one where good chances are rare.

Our pick: Not both teams to score. This shapes up as a quiet, low-key game — around 2.1 goals between the two (xG 0.9-1.2). One side keeping it tight for a clean sheet is well on the cards.

We put the chance of that landing at about 50 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.70, which works out at about 59 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

One thing to watch

It only takes one lapse at either end — both sides finding the net is never far away. The price is shorter than our own read of about 53%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
