Why Bet on Racing

Racing is one of the favorites in this tournament. After several championships where they have been very close, and playing in a great way, Fernando Gago’s team hopes to finally be able to celebrate a new title.

Over the weekend they got an important tie against Newell’s in Rosario (0-0) and has 4 wins, 2 draws, and another 2 losses. All those wins were at home, where they know nothing else other than that, scoring 10 goals and not conceding any.

The Cilindro is a fort. The last time Racing lost at home was on November 21, 2021 (1-2 against Colón). 16 games have passed in that stadium after that, counting all competitions.

There are already 4 undefeated games for the Academia, and two matches stand out: the classic where they beat Independiente 1-0 with Gabriel Hauche’s bicycle kick goal and the win against Aldosivi by 5-0.

Why Bet on Arsenal

Arsenal is, together with Platense, the team that tied the most times: 5. The Sarandí team only lost in the first match against Boca Juniors (2-1) and then they did not lose anymore. They are 7 games undefeated, but they have only been able to obtain 2 wins in that time (against Estudiantes 2-1 and Patronato 0-1), although they were very recent.

Their last game was a 1-1 draw with Platense, one of the surprises of the tournament, thanks to a goal from Facundo Kruspzky.

However, Arsenal is going through hard times with the departure of its players, such as its top-scorer Cristian Colmán, who went to Barracas Central. It was a controversial signing, and the Paraguayan was free from ‘Arse’ when it seemed that he had everything agreed to be sold to San Lorenzo. Defender Lucas Suárez also left and signed with Talleres, while midfielder Leonel Picco went to Colón. 6 of Arsenal’s 10 goals in the tournament were blown in this window.

Final Betting Analysis: Racing vs. Arsenal

Matchday 9 of the Argentine league will have a nice duel between two clubs that need a victory, although one is to continue in the fight for the title and the other is thinking about relegation. By present and game, we believe that the winner will be Racing.

At MyBookie.ag we find that Racing is the favorite of the match with a Moneyline of -149, while Arsenal has +420 and the draw is at +270.

The last time they met was on August 21, 2021, and it was a 0-3 away win for Racing with goals from Tomás Chancalay, twice, and Darío Cvitanich. However, the last match at the Cilindro was a 0-2 win for Arsenal with goals from Lucas Albertengo and Jhonatan Candia.

Go for a straight win of Racing in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 on a Racing win at -149, you will gain $67 for a total payout of $167.
