Barracas Central are the worst in the league this season, with only 11 points from 16 rounds. However, the rules in Argentinian football are specific, as the final standings are actually cumulative scores in the league and Copa de la Liga Profesional. Barracas Central played well in the first competition this year, so are sitting on a safe distance from the drop zone. 

Barracas Central are in terrible form. They lost five of the last six matches. In the previous game, Barracas Central lost 2-1 on the road against Central Cordoba. The teams were pretty even, but the home side did just enough to pick up all three points. 

Independiente Rivadavia were terrible in Copa de la Liga Profesional, with only eight points from 14 matches. So, a solid 19 points from 16 league rounds is not enough for the club from Mendoza to be safe from relegation. Currently, Independiente Rivadavia are only four points above the drop zone. Alfredo Berti's team won only one of the last eight matches. In the previous game, they played 1-1 at home against Instituto. 

Barracas Central vs Independiente Rivadavia pick: Under 2.5 goals
