As we head into the final round of fixtures in the Argentinian top-flight Godoy Cruz sit ninth in the table. The club from the City of Mendoza finished 15th in the 2022 campaign and significant improvement has been visible to see throughout this latest season.
Boca Juniors will still be getting over their defeat in the Copa Libertadores final to Fluminense earlier in the month and have had a rather underwhelming season domestically compared to their high standards. Los Xeneizes are currently seventh in the table having accrued 44 points this term.
Bookmakers have installed the hosts as the favourites to collect three points here, priced at 6/5 to do so. Those odds imply a 46% chance of success, while the draw is available for punters at 11/5, with a win for Boca Juniors on show at 23/10.
Godoy Cruz vs Boca Juniors Tips
Our main play for this clash on the edge of the Andes is for Godoy Cruz to come out on top and win the game at 6/5.
A large proportion of our thinking behind this one is due to Boca having played in the semi-final of the Copa Argentina on Thursday, giving them significantly less time to prepare for this encounter.
Boca were defeated 3-2 in that game with Estudiantes, however Marcelo Saracchi’s red card in the 15th minute left them very much handicapped for the majority of the match. Boca had to do lots of chasing the ball and with Godoy Cruz coming into this one off the back of a two week break, they should be primed and raring to go.
Godoy Cruz also have the incentive of needing a victory in order to qualify for the Copa Libertadores next season. Sergio Gomez’s side last reached South America’s most prestigious club tournament back in 2019 and we expect them to throw everything at this latest attempt.
We’ve also picked out a correct score for this clash and are getting behind a 2-0 win for the hosts. The last time these two sides met, Godoy came out the 4-0 winners on home soil and although we don’t see this being quite as convincing a victory, we do think they can keep Boca out and win the game by two goals.
Godoy have been excellent in the second phase of the season and have lost just one of their last 14 matches! All five of their most recent victories have been ‘to Nil’.
Boca have only been victorious in one of their last six across all competitions and could rotate here after the Cup clash against Estudiantes midweek.
