Vélez Sársfield have gone unbeaten in 12 of their last 13 matches, which reflects their consistency and ability to pick up points.

⭐ Editorial Prediction
Vélez Sarsfield look the stronger side based on current form, but Deportivo Riestra are capable of making life difficult for one of the league's leading teams on their own ground. The visitors score regularly away from home, and their away matches often produce more than one goal. So even without expecting a particularly open game, there are decent chances of the two sides combining for at least two goals. Our pick is Total Goals - Over 1.5.
