Boca Juniors to Score First in 1st Half
Despite the bad results that Boca Juniors got in their last matches, we think that in this duel they will be aggressive and try to score their first goal in the first minutes. The team urgently needs a result to turn the page, in matchday 1 Belgrano conceded a first-half goal at home, now that they will be playing at the famous La Bombonera stadium their defence is likely to be even more fragile.
Under 2.5 Goals
The goal production of these two teams in the last few rounds has not been positive at all. Due to the shortage of goals, their scoring average per game has decreased considerably. For this reason, we think that the team that scored the first goal will switch to a very defensive system to maintain their lead and therefore reduce the shots on goal. This has been a frequent strategy used by these two Boca Juniors vs Belgrano line ups.

Belgrano
With their latest result, Belgrano snapped a six-match unbeaten run including five wins in that period, The Pirates were beaten the previous day when they visited Independiente. In this match Belgrano had more possession of the ball but only managed two shots on target during the 90 minutes.
