Estudiantes LP vs Club Ateltico Tigre Prediction: Expect a High Scoring Opening Duel

In the upcoming fixture of the Argentine Primera Division, Estudiantes will be up against Club Atletico Tigre at the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi. The last time these two sides were seen in action in the Primera Division fixture. The last time these two sides played against each other, Tigre won (2-1), with Mateo Retegui and Facundo Colidio scoring goals. With Estudiantes hosting Tigre, we can expect odds to swing a bit, and the final outcome to be a very interesting one to bet on. 

In the 22 matches played between the two recently, Tigre leads the win count (10-7) and 5 matches resulted in a draw. Evaluating the total goals scored, both teams have scored total 3.00 goals on an average in the head-to-head encounters. Estudiantes has a goal scoring average of 1.41 goals per game against Ateltico Tigre, whereas Tigre has a better average of 1.59 goals per game against Estudiantes. The upcoming fixture is expected to be a fighting one, with both teams playing with new faces.

Estudiantes will be hoping to perform much better from the previous season, as Abel Balbo, the legendary striker has taken the coaching role of team in 2023. Attacker Guido Carrillo, hailing from China, and from Italy, Santiago Ascacibar will also join the team. With the inclusion of these two, Estudiantes will get reinforced and gain confidence as the tournament continues. In the last 22 games against Tigre, Estudiantes averaged 1.41 goals, which is likely to get better with a much improved attack.   

Mariano Andújar, Leonardo Godoy, Santiago Núñez, Zaid Romero, Leonardo Mas, Benjamín Rollheiser, Santiago Ascacíbar, Jorge Rodríguez, Matías Godoy, Mauro Boselli, Guido Carrillo (doubtful).

Going in the matchup against Estudiantes, Tigre certainly leads the head to head win count from the recent 22 games. However, its recent defeat against Independiente was unreasonable. WIth peculiar reinforcements made in the lineup, Tigre will be hoping for a much better performance. With the recent inclusion of Aaron Molinas from Boca, Tigre must be feeling confident about their midfield positioning. For the upcoming contest, Tigre will be prepared for a high scoring outing, as 5 of its last 6 games have seen over 2.5 goals.

Gonzalo Marinelli, Martín Ortega, Brian Leizza, Sebastián Prediger, Sebastián Prieto, Cristian Zabala, Agustín Baldi, Alexis Castro, Facundo Colidio, Ijiel Protti, Mateo Retegui.

If we compare the historic head-to-head encounters, Estudiantes leads with (41-21). However, in recent times Tigre has been quite dominant against Estudiantes, we can expect the home side to win. With new faces in the lineup, I am expecting a one sided win for the home side. The game total is expected to be over 2.5 goals, and both teams to score.

• Estudiantes to Win for 2.30
• Both Teams To Score - Yes for 1.93
• 1st Goal - Estudiantes for 1.87
