Tipster’s Angle

An exciting contest is on the cards when Brazil hosts mighty Argentina. This is a pretty even contest as both the teams have enjoyed a fair share of the victories. And also these two teams have produced a lot of low scoring fixtures which could be on the cards as well.

Tip: Brazil To Win @ 2.12

In the last ten matches that Brazil has played across competitions, they have won eight, drew one and lost just one match. While Argentina have won seven and drawn three matches in their last 11 matches across competitions. Similar to the form, the head to head have also been pretty even as Brazil has won three and Argentina has won three matches in the last six head to head matches. But Brazil have won three of the last four head to head matches that they have hosted. Brazil will be looking for revenge for the Copa America finals loss recently. So, it is very likely that Brazil will come out on top at 2.12 odds available at the Dafabet sportsbook.

Tip: Total Goals Under 2.5 @ 1.60

In the last eight head to head matches, a total of just 13 goals were scored at an average of 1.625 goals per match. And under 2.5 goals were scored in seven of those matches. The last three of the last four head to head matches hosted by Brazil had under 2.5 goals scored in them. Under 2.5 goals were scored in six of the last nine matches that Brazil has played across competitions. In the last nine matches that Argentina has played across competitions, under 2.5 goals were scored in six of those matches. By considering these facts, it is likely that under 2.5 goals will be scored at 1.60 odds available at the Betway sportsbook.

Conclusion

Brazil are more likely to get their revenge for their loss in Copa America. But both teams are in a strong position to make it to the World Cup. By the looks of it, this group might end up with Brazil on top and Argentina in second position.
