What to expect

We expect about 1.6 goals from Rosario Central and 0.7 from Newells Old Boys, so Rosario Central come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.3 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Not both teams to score. This shapes up as a quiet, low-key game — around 2.3 goals between the two (xG 1.6-0.7). One side keeping it tight for a clean sheet is well on the cards.

We put the chance of that landing at about 62 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.46, which works out at about 68 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
Rosario Central have won three of their last five.
Newells Old Boys have won two of their last five.

One thing to watch

Both these sides carry some threat, so one moment at either end spoils it. The price is shorter than our own read of about 62%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
