Belgrano take on the visitors Boca Juniors in the round 8 match of Copa De La Liga Professional. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 11th at Estadio Julio Cesar Villagra (Cordoba).
Belgrano, although existing for nearly 120 years, haven't had much to boast about. Perhaps the fact that they managed to qualify for the Copa Sudamericana and spent a cumulative decade in the Primera Division is noteworthy. However, they only returned to the top division of the country in 2022, albeit as the first-place finishers. Not much was expected from the team, but they earned 36 points in 27 Primera Division matches, finishing comfortably in the upper half of the table. In the Trophy tournament, they have managed not to lose a single match. While 5 out of 7 matches resulted in draws, a couple of victories were enough to keep them in the top four.

Boca Juniors are trying to salvage the season through other competitions. The Genoese managed to reclaim the championship title in 2022. However, defending it was nowhere close to being possible. The grand club in the Primera Division could only muster a measly 44 points, yielding the sixth-place finish to Defensa y Justicia based on additional criteria. They made up for this setback with their performance in the Copa Libertadores, where the Argentines reached the semifinals, narrowly losing to Palmeiras. After a goalless draw at home in Brazil, they settled for a 1-1 draw, only to lose in the penalty shootout to the visitors. They also have a chance to claim the country's cup trophy, with a quarter-final match against Talleres coming up soon. In contrast, they don't seem to have much motivation for the Diego Maradona Cup. Out of seven matches, they've managed only 2 wins with 4 losses.
Boca have won 5 out of the last 6 head-to-head matches, with a solitary draw. In the spring, they finally managed to secure a grandmaster 2-0 victory against the Pirates. The hosts can take advantage of the visitors' less-than-stellar form and their commitments in the Copa. We recommend betting on Belgrano with a 0 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Belgrano to win with 0.0 handicap.
