Betting tips and odds are provided below.

Union Santa Fe comes to this game after adding the 2nd consecutive defeat, this time against the leader River Plate. The Union Santa Fe team is going through a difficult moment, being at the moment in penultimate place, with only 1 point more than the last classified Colon. In the last game, the team practically limited itself to defending, trying to at least get a draw. However, it ended up suffering in the 10th minute, and in the 66th minute it was reduced to 10 players. Union Santa Fe's style of play is based on good defensive organization, then looking to exploit offensive transitions. It is true that in recent games this has not been the case, but they were against River Plate and Racing Club. In the previous rounds the team had won and drawn, and will certainly try to add at least one point against a more accessible team like Belgrano.

After an excellent start to the league, the Belgrano team is having some difficulties in adding victories at this stage of the league, having already fallen to 16th place. In the last 5 games, they have only won one, and they did not go beyond a home draw against an accessible Sarmiento Junin. The team does not concede many goals, but it also scores little. So far it has only 5 goals scored in 9 rounds, being one of the worst attacks in the league. This is a theoretically accessible game for the Belgrano team, however, it is a game that can prove to be complicated if the team is not able to score early against an opponent who will try to add at least a draw.

In the last 5 games between these 2 teams, Belgrano has won 2, Union Santa Fe has won none, and there’s 3 draws. Goals were scored in 4 of those 5 matches, and all of them had exactly 2 goals.

It is a rather unpredictable match, due to the recent form of both teams, however not many goals are expected in this match and Belgrano are not expected to lose.
