Our Best Prediction and Betting Tips for Independiente vs Platense
Independiente to Win
The Reds had a great performance on their visit to Talleres and got their first win. We think a repeat of this result in round two will be easier as they will be playing in front of their home fans. The away team has been on a bad run since last season and failed to win at home. For this reason, we expect the home team to be on top after 90 minutes.
Over 2.5 Goals
The last time these two teams met, there were a total of 4 goals. In the previous round, Platense conceded 2 goals, and also scored two. There will probably be a good amount of goals in this match, at least more than 2.5. Both teams scored in the previous round, which indicates a good performance in the offensive zone. Our second prediction is that there will be at least 3 goals or more.
BTTS
In recent years, these two teams have met only twice, and on both occasions, each scored at least one goal. Although the away team did not win on the first matchday, they have more goals than Independiente, which did get all 3 points. It will not be unusual if both put the ball in the net once or even several times.
Independiente vs Platense Preview: Will The Home Team Win?
Independiente
The Reds had a few complications in winning their first match, one of which was keeping possession of the ball, during the 90 minutes the percentage was 39%. Although Independiente shot 11 times, only two shots were on target. Independiente’s goal came in the 52nd minute when Platense’s left-back put the ball into his own net. For the next half hour, Independiente protected their lead.
Platense
In the first matchday, Martin Palermo’s team did a great job offensively, but it was not the same in defence. Platense scored two goals but conceded the same amount. Goalkeeper Ignacio Arce was key to at least earning a point, and saving a penalty kick. Right-back Nicolas Morgantini and winger Franco Baldassarra scored Platense’s two goals.
