Nueva Chicago vs Atl. Rafaela Prediction & Betting Tips (1 March)

Irrespective of who has been in charge, Nueva Chicago home record has made for some dreadful reading in recent times, with the Nueva Chicago suffering a staggering 16 defeats in the Primera Nacional matches. This should be music to the ears of a Atl. Rafaela side that has triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late, with one of those wins.

Atl. Rafaela appear destined to secure promotion at the end of the campaign, and the fact that ten of their last 16 games have served up no more than a couple of goals shows how hard they are having to scrap for every point. The numbers have been pretty similar for Nueva Chicago of late, with 12 of their previous 16 matches at this level delivering under 2.5 goals.

It has been quite an unusual experience to see Nueva Chicago both score and concede during the same 91 minutes in a Primera Nacional fixture recently, with this happening just three times out of a possible 11. Given that only six of the previous 21 top-flight games involving Atl. Rafaela have produced goals at both ends, at least one of the two keepers should pitch a shutout here.
