Double chance : Velez Sarsfield or draw

Velez Sarsfield have been drawing a lot lately, but they haven't lost many either, so they're in decent shape without being spectacular. Platense have had a rougher time, losing a couple of their recent games and only winning once in their last five. When these two have met recently, Velez have usually come out on top, and the games between them haven't been packed with goals.

This one looks like it could be tight and low-scoring, but Velez's stronger recent form and their good record against Platense suggest they're the more likely side to edge it. A narrow win for Velez seems the most probable outcome.
