If you know the Argentinian tournament and its gigantic teams, you’ll be a bit disappointed to see some of them far away from the top positions.
Newell’s Old Boys is taking the lead for a few rounds, followed by Gimnasia; Aldosívi is at the bottom of the table.
Vélez is in the 25th position – there are 28 teams in this league. The probable reason for this is the complete focus on the Copa Libertadores. Vélez Sarsfield just reached the quarter-finals of the competition, after beating the same River Plate.
Considered one of the best teams in the Americas, River has now only the national league to fight for the title – they are in the 16th position.
They will face Vélez again, just a few days after the dramatic match for the Copa Libertadores, in which the blue and white teams have advanced.

Why Bet on Vélez?
Vélez just beat River for the international competition (Libertadores), by winning the first match (1-0) and drawing the second one (0-0).
They are only three points behind River in the national league, and this game can be the chance to even the points between them.
Playing at home will be another advantage for Vélez, but this definitely won’t be an easy game.
Why Bet on River?
River is out of Copa Libertadores now and they will turn their focus totally to the national league.
While the opponent is trying to get further at the international tournament, River can play with the main team against a mixed squad from Vélez – it’s not easy to play in big competitions at the same time.
Head Coach Marcelo Gallardo will look for new players to compete for the title this season, trying to gain positions at the table and get into the top 4 teams.
Final Betting Analysis: Vélez vs. River
Vélez against River is always a difficult match to predict in the Argentine Superliga. Both teams have good reasons to win this game and their squads are pretty even right now.
Our best pick for this match is a 1-1 draw.
