Talleres and Central Cordoba will square off on Saturday, having both made slow starts to the Argentine Primera Division season.

Both teams sit on four points from four games, with the hosts three places better off than their opponents thanks to a superior goal difference.

We say: Talleres 2-1 Central Cordoba


Both sides will be desperate to improve on their starts, but we see Talleres having slightly more quality in their squad and expect them to take all three points on home turf.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Having both made relatively slow starts to the Argentine Primera Division campaign, Defensa y Justicia and Velez Sarsfield will do battle on Saturday.

Winless in their opening four games, the hosts currently sit 26th in a tight bottom half, while their visitors are only a point better off after a first victory last time out.

We say: Defensa y Justicia 0-2 Velez Sarsfield


Defensa y Justicia have certainly struggled so are and things look to only be getting worse.

With renewed confidence from their three-point haul last time out, the visitors should have what it takes to outclass their hosts and leave with another triumph.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Estudiantes vs. Newell's OB (Saturday, 10.00pm)

Newell's Old Boys shall be attempting to continue their undefeated start to the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division on Saturday when they travel to face Estudiantes.

The hosts suffered their first loss of this section of the campaign in their most recent outing, which they will be looking to put right against the current league leaders.

We say: Estudiantes 1-1 Newell's Old Boys


These are two teams that have a chance to earn some silverware this season, which will no doubt provide a big motivation heading into this fixture.

It brings together a high-scoring outfit against a great defensive one, and because of that they could end up leaving with a share of the points.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Colon vs. Huracan (Saturday, 10.00pm)

After being knocked out of the Copa Argentina via penalties in midweek Colon shall be out for revenge on Saturday when they face Huracan in league action.

The visitors have picked up the same number of points as their opponents during the second phase of the Argentine Primera Division, and currently find themselves in the top half of the overall table.

We say: Colon 0-2 Huracan


Colon are able to boast the home advantage for this particular fixture, and their fans will have a huge role to play in trying to cheer their team on to better results than they have seen to this point of the season.

Unfortunately, they are likely to be treated to another defeat with the visitors having proven themselves to be a stronger outfit overall this campaign.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

River Plate and Lanus will face off on Saturday, with both sides in a positive mood after clinching their first wins of the season last weekend.

Lanus got the better of Colon via a narrow 1-0 scoreline, while River Plate thrashed Union Santa Fe 5-1 to move themselves up to 14th place in the Primera Division table.

We say: River Plate 3-1 Lanus


Although the two sides are currently level on points, we believe River Plate will have the upper hand over their opponents after winning the last three meetings against Lanus, and we think they will continue that impressive record by clinching all three points on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.
