Velez Sarsfield - Coming off a Draw Against Atletico Tucuman (DDLWW)

Going in the matchup against Boca Juniors, Velez Sarsfield is coming off a draw against Atletico Tucuman (1-1), in which Jose Florentin scored in the 50th minute of play. Velez Sarsfield will be progressing with the same lineup from the previous outing. With the presence of Osorio, Cabrera, and Godin in the lineup, Velez is likely to present a reasonably competitive matchup against the men in Blue and Golden. With a goal scoring average of 1.60 goals in the last 10 home fixtures, Velez is likely to stay tough and score at least 2 goals. Against Boca, Velez has scored 51 goals in 46 matches at an average of 1.11 goals per game. 

Expected Opening Lineup for Velez Sarsfield

Leonardo Burian, Tomás Guidara, Diego Godin, Miguel Brizuela, Francisco Ortega, Nicolás Garayalde, Elias Cabrera, José Florentín, Abiel Osorio, Santiago Castro, Lucas Janson.

Boca Juniors - Defeated Platense by Quite a Margin (WLDWD)

Going in the matchup, Boca is coming off a comprehensive win against CA Platense (3-1), in which Jorge Figal, Miguel Merentiel, and Norberto Briasco scored goals. Moreover, Osar Romero was also spot on with two important assists. Coach Hugo Ibarra can certainly back his opening lineup to secure a considerable lead against Velez Sarsfield. Secondly, Boca has scored 83 goals in 46 meetings against Velez, averaging about 1.8 goals per game. Hence, Boca will be confident in scoring at least 2 goals. Though Boca’s away scoring average in the last 10 away outings is just 0.90 goals, its recent form is quite convincing. 

Expected Opening Lineup for Boca Juniors

Sergio Romero, Luis Advincula, Facundo Roncaglia, Jorge Nicolás Figal, Agustín Sández, Pol Fernández, Ezequiel Fernández, Oscar Romero, Luca Langoni, Miguel Merentiel, Martín Payero.

Expert Betting Tips

Going in the matchup, I am expecting a highly competitive contest with Boca leading the charts. In 7 of the last 10 away matches for Boca, only one team has managed to score. Hence, I am predicting Boca to win the upcoming fixture and the game total to be over 2.5 goals. As Boca demonstrates a healthy average against Velez, I am expecting a 1-2 scoreline.
