The club intends to perform no less successfully in the Apertura and the start has already been made. In the first round, the team managed to win over Barracas Central (3:1) in an away match. Thanks to this result, the team now occupies fourth place in Group A, behind only Tigre, as well as Banfield and Independiente Rivadavia, who have already played their match in the second round. The hosts are on a series of three victories in a row in all tournaments and do not plan to stop there. In 2019, the team from Avellaneda already became the winner of the Argentine Super League and plans to fight for the main trophy again. Gustavo Costas charges are clearly serious, it is not for nothing that the hosts are considered the clear favorites of the upcoming match.

Belgrano
ArgentinaCurrent form
Belgrano are not performing as successfully as today opponent. In 2024, the team took only 16th place in the regular season, which is in the middle of the table. Before that, the club was also considered at best a mid-table team in the Argentine championship, and its roster does not allow it to claim anything more. 2025 began for the guests with two matches in the Rio de la Plata Series, where they managed to beat the Uruguayan Montevideo Wanderers (3:1), and then beat another Uruguayan club, Progreso, in a penalty shootout. At the same time, they failed to start with a victory in the Apertura. In the first round, the team from Cordoba managed to achieve only a draw in the home match with Atletico Huracan (1:1). It will be even more difficult to get three points in an away match with such a strong opponent as Racing.

The visitors have no problems with their lineup ahead of the second round match.
Interesting trends for betting
- The team managed to avoid defeat in the last three matches
- For six matches in a row, the visitors have not left the field without scoring a goal
- Belgrano have not won a single victory over Racing in their last six head-to-head matches

The hosts regularly find themselves at the top of the table in the Argentine championship and will certainly be able to achieve an excellent result this season. The team started 2025 perfectly, having secured two confident victories on the road. The team should perform no worse on its home field, so Belgrano will have a hard time here. The visitors are performing well for their level, but are still inferior in class to their opponent. We believe that Belgrano will not be able to score tournament points in the away match.
