River Plate vs Independiente Rivadavia Odds

The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.

River Trading at Shorter Odds Than Independiente

The latest River Plate odds are -149 which leads to them being favourites in this Primera División clash. It’s also implied by the bookmakers that they have a 60% prospect of securing a victory. If you’re interested in wagering Independiente Rivadavia, you can get +440 for the underdog.

Stake is split between -0.5 and -1.0 when betting River -0.75 at -119 on the Asian Handicap. Beating Independiente by 2+ goals sees a full payout. Winning by one goal means a return on the former and a push on the latter.

The Total Goals market always provides an interesting angle and Under 2.5 Goals is the shortest-priced option. If you believe this suggests that there will be a one-sided or low-scoring affair, then BTTS No could be a great pick at -154.
