Expert Betting Tips
This game will be a very tough one as both teams will aim for the victory. We expect them to employ a conservative approach in the first half which might in turn lead to fewer goals in the first half. We saw the same type of conservative play in their first-half encounter which ended in a 1-0 narrow victory to Argentinos Juniors and we can expect a similar approach of play here. Corinthians have the full support of their fans as this game will be played on their home ground and they will do everything they can to not suffer another defeat at the hands of Argentinos Juniors. We expect a cagy first half and a first-half draw is a great bet. A victory or a draw and a total of under 3.5 goals for Corinthians is also a good betting option.
