Nueva Chicago vs Def. de Belgrano Prediction & Betting Tips (6 October)

Although results have picked up a bit recently, the fact that Nueva Chicago have recorded just two victories in their previous 13 top-flight home fixtures, losing on five occasions, goes a long way towards explaining why they find themselves locked in a difficult battle. As for title-chasing Def. de Belgrano, they have triumphed four times in five trips at this level of late.

Nueva Chicago had featured in 15 away games out of 21 in Primera Nacional containing two goals or fewer, so achieving consistency had not proven too challenging in this area. For their part, Def. de Belgrano have not been pulling up too many trees in terms of excitement on their own patch either, with nine of their last 12 matches producing under 2.5 goals.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from five of the previous six Nueva Chicago home games in the Primera Nacional, so thrillers have been few and far between at the home Stadium. As for Def. de Belgrano, just four of their most recent 17 away matches at this level have produced goals at both ends, which doesn’t offer much hope.
