Belgrano Córdoba welcomes Barracas Central to the Estadio Julio César Villagra on March 17, 2025, for what promises to be a tightly contested Liga Profesional Argentina clash. With Belgrano priced at 1.8 for the win, the bookmakers see them as clear favorites, but can Barracas Central pull off another upset? Let’s break it down.

1X2 Betting: Belgrano to Edge It
Belgrano Córdoba is the stronger side on paper, boasting a squad worth €37.67m compared to Barracas Central’s €15.85m. They also enjoy home advantage, where Argentine teams historically win 43.5% of their matches. Our AI model gives a 3.1/10 confidence rating for a Belgrano win, which isn’t overwhelming but still leans in their favor.

Barracas Central, however, has shown they can surprise on the road, as seen in their recent shock win over Defensa y Justicia. But with Belgrano expected to dominate possession (62% vs. 38%), the visitors may struggle to create enough chances.

Goals Market: Expect a Low-Scoring Affair
If you’re looking for a solid bet, our AI strongly recommends Under 2.5 goals at 1.64 odds, with a confidence rating of 5.5/10. Why? Because Argentine league matches tend to be cagey—only 38.1% of games see over 2.5 goals.

Belgrano’s recent matches have been tight, and their last head-to-head with Barracas Central ended in a 2-0 win for the visitors. With an expected final score of 1-0 and a predicted halftime score of 0-0, this game could be a slow burner.
