River Plate faces Estudiantes L.P. at the iconic Estadio Mâs Monumental on March 1, 2025, at 22:15 UTC. The bookmakers favor the home side with odds of 1.75 for a win, while a draw stands at 3.5, and an away victory is priced at 4.6. But is this a straightforward win for River, or could Estudiantes pull off another shocker? Let’s break it down.

Match Prediction & Betting Tips

All signs point to a low-scoring affair. The AI-generated best tip is NG (Both Teams Not to Score) with a confidence level of 6.7/10 and odds of 1.8. This makes sense, considering River is expected to dominate possession at around 66% while limiting Estudiantes’ attacking opportunities.

The expected final score? 1-0 for River Plate. Interestingly, the predicted halftime score is 0-0, suggesting a slow start before River breaks through. If you’re looking for a solid bet, Under 3.5 goals at 1.28 odds with a confidence level of 5.7 seems like a safe pick.

Key Stats & Insights

- Home teams in Argentina’s Primera División win 43.7% of the time, while away sides only triumph in 25.9% of matches. Advantage River.
- Only 44.2% of league games see both teams scoring, reinforcing the NG tip.
- Just 19.3% of matches exceed 3.5 goals, making the under bet even more appealing.

River Plate won their last head-to-head clash against Estudiantes 2-1 on March 14, 2024. However, Estudiantes recently stunned Gremio with a 1-1 away win despite massive 5.8 odds against them. Could they pull off another upset? It’s unlikely, but not impossible.

Final Thoughts

River Plate should control this game, but don’t expect a goal fest. A narrow home win with a clean sheet is the most probable outcome. Smart bets? River Plate to win (1.75), NG (1.8), and Under 3.5 goals (1.28). If you’re feeling adventurous, a correct score bet of 1-0 could bring decent returns. Let’s see if River can deliver or if Estudiantes has another surprise up their sleeve!
