River Plate vs Dep. Tachira Prediction & Betting Tips (31 May)

Winning games has come easily to River Plate on their own patch of late, as they have triumphed 19 times in their most recent 21 matches at the top table of the Copa Libertadores. Dep. Tachira, on the other hand, have found the going extremely tough on their travels in the last few months, suffering six defeats in eight fixtures in the Copa Libertadores.

Just one of the previous 19 River Plate home games in the Copa Libertadores has served up more than three goals, so they certainly cannot be accused of a lack of consistency in this particular department. Although Dep. Tachira cannot compete with these numbers, it remains the case that 16 of their most recent 21 matches at this level have also been of the under 3.5 goals variety.

Over the course of their last 15 Copa Libertadores matches, Dep. Tachira have been involved in just a couple of contests in which both teams have found the net, so this is a pretty unusual occurrence. Not only that, but at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from eight of the previous 12 top-flight fixtures involving River Plate.
