Defensa y Justicia are the shortest price to win this Primera División clash according to the bookies, with the favourites given a 52% probability due to their -108 betting odds. If you’re looking for an alternative angle, Central Córdoba are trading at +330.

You can choose between Defensa -0.5 at -111 or Central +0.5 at -115 if you’re looking to bet on the Asian Handicap. The former is the same as the 1x2 market, while the latter means you also get a payout if it’s a draw.
