Instituto Cordoba hosts Godoy Cruz at Estadio Juan Domingo Perón in what promises to be a tactical battle rather than a goal fest. The odds favor the home side at 2.0, while a draw sits at 3.0, and an away win offers a tempting 4.2. However, our AI suggests the best value lies in the under 2.5 goals market, priced at 1.39 with a solid trust rating of 8.0/10.

Looking at the numbers, history suggests a tight affair. Only 38.2% of Liga Profesional matches see more than 2.5 goals, and with both teams expected to register minimal shots on target (Instituto 2, Godoy Cruz 3), a low-scoring contest seems likely. Adding to this, Instituto is predicted to dominate possession at 55%, but Godoy Cruz has shown they can strike efficiently, as seen in their 2-0 away win against Velez Sarsfield last month.

Interestingly, the last head-to-head meeting saw a 3-1 win for Godoy Cruz, but don’t let that fool you—such high-scoring encounters are rare in this league. With only 19.4% of matches surpassing 3.5 goals, expecting another goal-fest might be wishful thinking.

For those looking for a riskier punt, the AI leans toward an away win at 4.2 odds, though with a modest trust rating of 2.5/10. If you’re feeling adventurous, a 0-1 correct score bet could be worth a shot, aligning with our AI’s prediction.

Discipline-wise, expect a relatively clean game, with Instituto projected to pick up just one yellow card and Godoy Cruz two. Corners should also be limited, with a total of seven expected.

In summary, the safest bet here is under 2.5 goals at 1.39 odds. If you’re chasing value, backing Godoy Cruz to snatch a narrow win at 4.2 could be a bold but rewarding move. Either way, don’t expect fireworks—this one’s shaping up to be a chess match rather than a shootout.
