Sporting Cristal River Plate betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

We consider that there is a high probability that the market is favorable for “Under 3.5 goals” in this match, as it was in 16 of the 22 official games played by Sporting Cristal and in 18 of the 22 played by River Plate this year. It is worth noting that this is a direct confrontation for the vice-leadership of Group D of the 2023 Copa Libertadores, a position that guarantees a place in the round of 16. Therefore, the expectation is of a tense confrontation and with few goal opportunities for both sides, not least because Sporting Cristal, even playing at home, should adopt a more reactive strategy and will hardly be leaked 2 or more times. Likewise, River Plate should seek to give few spaces to the opponent's counterattacks, as they know that a defeat at this stage of the competition could cost them a place in the round of 16.
