Fixture between Newell's Old Boys vs Argentinos Jrs is shaping up to be one of those games where form gets out the window. Kicking off
Newell's Old Boys’s been erratic, their showings swinging from inspired to baffling. Meanwhile, Argentinos Jrs’s fighting through a rough patch, their rearguard looking unstable.
Looking at past games, it’s a toss-up. Newell's Old Boys’s had the upper hand lately, but the game’s got a terrible memory.
My two cents: Each sides’ve got holes. Newell's Old Boys’s midfield’s sputtering, while Argentinos Jrs’s attack lacks a killer instinct.
When it comes to the Super League, this game carries added significance. The competition’s battle for continental qualification means every outcome counts, and both teams know a strong showing here could shift momentum in the table. Current performances in the Super League suggests neither side can afford lapses, making this tie even more compelling.
Still, there’s a feeling about this one—who knows, it’s the game where somebody steps up.
Bottom line: This ain't just another game—it's unmissable football with implications at both ends of the table. Mark your calendars.Hard-nosed betting view:
If you’re backing this one, here’s the real talk.
Newell's Old Boys at 7.05 to win feels slightly short given their inconsistencies in the Super League this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re due a regression — stats nerds would steer clear.
Argentinos Jrs’s 5.5 line tempts, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The smart money’ll likely poke at the Draw 1.31 — these big games often follow scripts, and occasion can kill attacking flow.
