Belgrano vs CA Mitre Prediction: Copa Argentina is back!

Copa Argentina is already underway, and even so early in the competition, we will see several interesting derby matches. One match is between Belgrano and CA Mitre, which will be played in a neutral location in Eva Peron de Junin stadium. Belgrano are favorites according to bookmakers, but their current form isn’t promising, and CA Mitre are always a difficult opponent in knockout matches.

Form: LDLLL

Belgrano didn’t start the new season well. They still haven’t won in Copa de la Liga Profesional, they have two defeats and a draw. However, they are playing very disciplined and defensive football, and both defeats were with minimal results 1:0. In this match they will be without injured F. Quignon, which is a blow for this team as he is an important midfielder. It’s expected Belgrano to play more carefully, but to try to finally win and end the winless run.

Form: WLWWW

CA Mitre played really well last season, they reached the playoffs in Primera Nacional, but they were unfortunate and knocked out, so this season they are part of Primera Nacional again. CA Mitre have high ambitions, looking forward to getting a promotion, and success in Copa Argentina is also welcomed. They started the season with a win 1:0 in the first round of Primera Nacional against San Telmo.

It’s the 1/32 finals of Copa Argentina and none of these teams wants to get knocked out so early in this competition. Both teams are in good competitive form, but Belgrano played more competitive matches, while CA Mitre had more friendly matches this period, and it might have an effect on this team. I expect a tense match, a more defensive approach by both teams, and more tactical outwitting, and only few goals in this match.
