Last Game: River Plate 2-1 Racing
Saturday, July 29 at 1.30am in Argentine Primera Division

We said: River Plate 2-0 Internacional

River Plate were very impressive during their previous Argentine Primera Division season, particularly at home, while Internacional have struggled in recent weeks, despite being dominant in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. As such, we expect the hosts to emerge as comfortable winners, building up a strong lead ahead of the second leg in Porto Alegre next week. Read more.
