Boca Juniors to Win
The last season was not the best one for Boca Juniors since they failed to win any trophies. On the other hand, Colon was the winner of Copa de Liga Profesional last season, so they will be defending their title now.
Despite this, our prediction is for Boca Juniors to win this game. They are the better team on paper, they will play at home, and they beat Colon in their last five h2h duels.
Boca Juniors and Colon to Draw at Half Time
While we expect Boca Juniors to win this game, we don’t expect them to have an easy job. After all, Colon is the defending champion of the competition and we expect the match to be decided in the second half.
So, our next prediction is for Boca Juniors and Colon to draw at half time, which happened in their previous two head-to-head meetings, which could be a start of a trend.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
While three of the last five h2h duels between Boca Juniors and Colon have gone over 2.5 total goals, we don’t see that happening in their upcoming match.
It’s the start of the season and the team’s are bound to be rusty in offense. Furthermore, Boca Juniors averaged 2.16 goals per game in Liga Profesional last season, while Colon averaged 2.28 goals per game in the same competition.
Boca Juniors vs Colon preview: The derby of the first round
Boca Juniors
Last season was hardly a successful one for Boca Juniors since the team failed to win any trophies and they were only fifth in the aggregate standings at the end of the season. The team did reach the playoffs in Copa de la Liga Profesional, but they were eliminated by Racing in the semi-finals. Meanwhile, Boca Juniors only came in fourth in Liga Profesional.
Colon
Although Colon finished the last edition of Liga Profesional in the seventh place, the team and their fans can be vary happy with last season. After all, Colon won Copa de la Liga Profesional and they finished the season in the fourth place in the aggregate standings, securing themselves a spot in the group stages of Copa Libertadores.
