In Rosario on Estadio Marcelo Bielsa, we will see the biggest derby match of the quarter-finals in Copa Argentina between Huracan and Estudiantes L.P. These are teams that are competing in the best league in Argentina so we can expect top-level football from both sides.

Huracan

Form: LDWWL

Huracan on their way to the quarter-finals were very confident and strong, in the previous round they won 5:3 against another strong team Racing Club. Huracan are winless in their two last matches and have a draw and a defeat in Copa de la Liga Profesional, but still, they are in 3rd position with 13 points, 4 wins, a draw, and 3 defeats. All players in the team are ready and the manager can count on them, so it’s expected Huracan to start with the strongest lineup and try to control the game from the start.

Estudiantes L.P.

Form: LDWDD

Estudiantes L.P. in the last round had a very difficult challenge, but they won on penalties against Independiente. Recently this team has had serious problems with offense, with scoring goals. In the last 5 matches, they scored only a goal. It’s true, they don’t lose matches either, but they can’t hope much if they can’t score. In the last 5 matches, they have 3 draws, a win, and a defeat. In Copa de la Liga Profesional they are in 12th place with 6 points, a win, 3 draws, and 4 defeats.

Expert Betting Tips

Considering everything Huracan are a slight favorite in this derby match of the quarter-finals in Copa Argentina. This team plays much better recently, and the atmosphere in the team is great. Estudiantes L.P. have been struggling recently, maybe their main goal is to take this match to penalties and then to decide who will proceed into the semifinals. However, it’s a big risk there are 90 minutes in which they will have to show something else than defending. I think that in this match we will see goals on both sides and Huracan will be the team that will proceed to the semifinals.
