    2 Plays - Argentina Primera Division

    I am liking these 2 plays for today:

    Chacarita Jrs PK and +0.5 +102

    Estudiantes de la Plata PK and +0.5 -105


    Arsenal de Sarandi yet has not won a game at home, at this doesn't seem to have any future. Chacarita at PK and +0.5 seems to have good value, since worst case IMO would be a tie.

    Estudiantes got killed recently in Peru (Copa Libertadores) and are visiting Boca in La Bombonera. I feel that Estudiantes have a great leader in La Brujita Veron and should take these guys to a victory today and upset Boca and bring there first loss at home.
    Any thoughts on these games?

    Chacarita up 2 - 0. Looks promising, I just dont feel good with a 2-0 score .. Anything can happen with it.

    What do you think about the OVER in the Boca game? I don't know a great deal about Estudiantes so I'm a little scared of playing them. I'd like to have some spice added when I watch the game after the olympic women's curling final!

    Estudiantes has been struggling on the road recently and Boca is fairly solid at home.

    I think the teams are fairly evenly matched but I give the edge to Boca due to their solid home record vs Estudiantes' poor away record.

    Estudiantes are the champions of Copa Libertadores. So they as all other teams struggle, but, these type of games bring out the best of them.

    But I just read that Veron is suspended for his 5th yellow card? Doesn't that make your argument in the top post a little invalid?

    Here are the lineups. I think Boca look a bit stronger?

    Boselli is out as well. Isn't he one of their better players?

    I think I'll play Boca.

    Yep, think Boca has a slight edge in this game so I think Boca is the correct play here. Nice bit of research there Gargamel.

    Estudiantes is dominating the game, have had at least 2 good shots on goal.

    But like you guys say, Boca does seem to have the edge.

    At pk and +0.5 I will take that chance.

    Thanks mate.

    I've learned the hard way to do my research properly, after posting a Singapore league cup play here two days ago, before finding out that my side had 8 players away on international duties

    They duly lost 0-1 and made me look like the biggest fool on earth.

    1-0 Boca!

    You should still have a good chance to hit your play as well. It's a shame we can't both win though.

    Estudiantes having the upper hand in the second half. Boca clinging on to their lead and counter attacking. I'm nervous!

    Yeah, the best way to learn is often the hardest way to learn. If it affects your profits, you generally learn quickly. We've all been there and made mistakes in the beginning, we've just got to keep learning and improving.

    Not long to go now, hopefully Boca can hold on for the win here so that you can cash your bet.

    And just as I post this, Estudiantes scores. Unlucky.

    I guess I was just too lucky yesterday.

    Estudiantes ties tbe game in the 92nd minute of the game. BTW ... looking again at the PK given to BOCA ... completely a freebie.

    GL Today Guys !!
