Instituto de Córdoba beat Lanús 2-1 in the previous round of the tournament at the end of May and are currently leading their Clausura group. Across their last ten matches, they have won six, drawn two and lost two. Their main strength is at the back - they concede an average of just 0.5 goals per game while scoring one. A run of four wins and one draw further underlines their current form; they know how to manage a scoreline and give opponents very little going forward.

⭐ Editor's Pick
Instituto Córdoba are considered slight favourites for this match on the back of a stronger start to the season. The team's results are built primarily on defensive solidity rather than attacking football - 12 of their last 14 matches have produced no more than two goals. Our pick is Total Goals - Under 2.5. Expected score: 0-1.
