Almirante Brown vs Nueva Chicago Prediction & Betting Tips (18 August)

Almirante Brown last graced the top-flight, ending that campaign by losing eight of their last 12 matches of the regular season, so a return to this level could represent a significant step up in class. Nueva Chicago are probably not the opponents that they would have chosen to face, with Almirante Brown boasting eight wins from ten games of late.

None of the last nine Almirante Brown home games in the Primera Nacional have produced more than a couple of goals, with the net bulging a grand total of ten times across these contests. Not only that, but each of the previous five Nueva Chicago matches at this level has followed the same pattern, so it would come as a surprise to see three goals or more.

Both teams have found the net in just four of the most recent 17 Almirante Brown home fixtures at the top table of the Primera Nacional, whilst they have drawn a blank themselves in five of their last six Primera Nacional games overall. As for Nueva Chicago, they have either kept a clean sheet or failed to score in five of their previous six away encounters at this elite level of the domestic game.
