Def. de Belgrano vs Chacarita Juniors Prediction & Betting Tips (5 August)

Few people expected Def. de Belgrano to be battling against relegation, but that is the reality facing a team that has suffered ten defeats in 11 games recently, not to mention the fact that they have triumphed only once at home all season. For their part, title-chasing Chacarita Juniors have recorded seven victories in their most recent ten Primera Nacional matches.

Over the course of their last seven top-flight fixtures, Def. de Belgrano have been involved in no fewer than five encounters containing under 2.5 goals. This is the sort of consistency that has been echoed by Chacarita Juniors on their travels of late, as eight of their previous ten matches at the top table of the Primera Nacional have featured two goals or fewer.

When Chacarita Juniors come calling, excitement doesn’t tend to follow, with six of their previous seven away games at the top table of the Primera Nacional seeing at least one of the two goalkeepers emerge with a clean sheet. What’s more, eight of the last nine Def. de Belgrano home matches at this level, including six in a row recently, have followed the same pattern.
