Talleres Cordoba vs Belgrano Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

Talleres Córdoba host Belgrano in the Córdoba derby on Sunday, 4 October 2026, at the Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes, in one of the standout fixtures of the Liga Profesional Clausura. This is a rivalry that has become famous for tight, low-scoring affairs: Talleres are unbeaten against Belgrano in their last twelve meetings, with recent encounters dominated by stalemates, including three 0-0 draws in the last four league clashes between the sides. With both teams grinding out results in the Clausura, another tense, tactical battle is expected in front of a packed Kempes.

Talleres head into the derby looking to bounce back after a humbling home defeat to Lanús in the Clausura, where they fell 0-3 despite enjoying the lion's share of possession. Earlier in the year they showed their resilience away from home, edging Defensa y Justicia 1-2 in the Apertura with a Maidana double, and they also claimed local bragging rights with a 2-0 win over Instituto in March. For the 2026/2027 season, Talleres' squad is built around goalkeeper Guido Herrera, defenders Matías Catalán, Augusto Schott and Alexandro Maidana, a hard-working midfield featuring Juan Sforza, Franco Fattori, Ulises Ortegoza and Matías Galarza, and an attack led by Rick, Valentín Depietri, Vicente Dávila and Diego Valoyes, though injuries to Martín Río and Matías Gómez have tested the depth of the group.

Belgrano arrive under Ricardo Zielinski with momentum from their most recent outing, a 2-1 home win over Estudiantes de Río Cuarto in which Martín Garnerone found the net. Their Clausura campaign has been built on defensive discipline, typified by the clean-sheet away win at Banfield (0-2, with goals from Lucas Zelarayán and Lucas Passerini), though they were beaten 0-1 by Argentinos Juniors at home in early August. The 2026/2027 Belgrano squad blends experience and creativity: Lucas Zelarayán and Emiliano Rigoni pull the strings behind forwards Passerini, Bruno Sepúlveda and Garnerone, with Gonzalo Metilli, Sebastián Longo, Lucas Morales and Adrián Spörle providing the backbone, and the visitors report no fresh injury concerns ahead of the trip across Córdoba.

The European odds reflect just how finely balanced this derby is, with Talleres priced around 2.40 to win, the draw at 3.00 and Belgrano at 3.20, while Under 2.5 goals is a short 1.60 given the sides' recent history. Belgrano's compact shape and Talleres' patchy finishing against deep blocks point toward a repeat of the cagey contests that have defined this fixture. Our prediction for the Córdoba derby is a 0-0 draw — a result that would extend Talleres' remarkable unbeaten run against Belgrano and keep both sides firmly in the Clausura playoff pict
