Tigre vs Rosario Central: Under 2.5 goals
Tigre and Rosario Central both sit on a 1.2 expected‑goals mark, yet their recent defensive records point to a low‑scoring affair.
Both sides enter the clash with identical expected‑goal figures, but Tigre’s home defence concedes just 0.8 per game while Central’s away defence lets in 1.1. The balance of firepower and solidity suggests a tight match at the Estadio Olímpico.

Tigre
Tigre’s recent run of W‑D‑W‑D‑L includes a 1‑0 win over River Plate and a 2‑1 home success against Central Cordoba, showing they can score while keeping the opposition to a single goal. The two clean‑sheet draws (0‑0 vs Aldosivi and Barracas Central) underline a defensive solidity that supports a low‑scoring game, reinforcing the under‑2.5 outlook.
Rosario Central
Rosario Central’s last five feature wins over Aldosivi (2‑1) and Barracas Central (1‑0) but also a 2‑2 draw with Talleres and a 1‑1 stalemate against Newells. The recent 1‑1 and 2‑2 results indicate they can both score and concede, yet the overall pattern of narrow margins aligns with a modest goal tally, complementing the under‑2.5 projection.
Head-to-Head
In the five most recent meetings, the sides have drawn three times (1‑1 in 2026, 1‑1 in 2024, and 2‑2 in 2023) while Tigre secured a 3‑1 win in 2022 and a 2‑0 victory the same year, showing a mix of tight draws and occasional decisive wins that favour a low‑goal total.
