How it turned out
The game finished with 1 goal.
What we said beforehand
Tigre come into this on two straight wins. River Plate come into this on five 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 1.0-0.9), 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 1.44, which works out at about 69 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
Cagey games can burst open late, and a couple of goals in the closing stages would be enough to catch this out. The price is shorter than our own read of about 64%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
