Platense vs Rosario Prediction: Can Platense surprise Rosario?

The clash between the Platense and Rosario Central in the Torneo Betano 2025 is a great round that represents round 13 of the tournament. Both sides have not been in alike form in their last game, and this could be a fixture to seek a changing of the guard for either side.

Platense (LWWWD)

With Platense having lost 0-1 to Deportivo Riestra in Round 12, they approach this match. Yet, they hardly managed to turn their dominant possession (64%) into even of creation of clear cut chances. In particular, the side did not have a single shot on target in the entire game. Key areas they needed to improve upon were their lack of cutting edge in the final third while many defensive lapses surfaced, especially in the second half when they conceded the decisive goal. Coupled with the late red card which compounded their problems this match required more discipline and composure under pressure.

Rosario (WWDWD)

As is proven by the previous round, Rosario Central secured a dramatic 2-1 win over Velez Sarsfield. Central, while under pressure in moments and despite their visitors creating more xG (1.06 vs 0.47), shouldered the more work and registered 8 total shots on goal, while enjoying 65% possession as well. Gimenez had the final say with an 84th minute winner in stoppage time , as the team gave their character with a response when put under the pump. Yes, the performance wasn’t flawless but it was a team that is growing in confidence with a strong chance to make the most of their moments in close games.

Expert Betting Tips

The match is delicately poised with Platense wanting to erase their home loss and Rosario hoping to enjoy the high from their late winner. Platense, though, have more recent form and their home crowd could be the equalising factor. Rosario Central have improved their control in possession and their ability to create opportunities to score while Platense are unable to score at the moment and the visitors should win this. Platense know, however, that if they can up their attack, this could go the other way and easily become a heated draw.
