River Plate
Talleres
On March 6, 2025, the final of the International Argentine Super Cup will take place at "General Pablo Rojas" in Asunción, featuring a clash between River Plate and Talleres Córdoba. I suggest a bet on one of the teams.
Preview
River Plate earned the right to participate in the final by becoming the champion of the Primera. Talleres Córdoba secured their spot by winning the Champions Trophy.
Until the last round, River Plate was in excellent form, boasting a seven-match unbeaten streak. The team showcased solid defense, not conceding a single goal in six consecutive matches.
However, in their last game, the "Millionaires" stumbled. A visit to Estudiantes was unfortunate for them, as the opponent handed "River" their first defeat of the season with a 2-0 victory.
Talleres Córdoba started the season in the Argentine championship unconvincingly, suffering three consecutive defeats. However, the team managed to break this losing streak, going unbeaten in the next three matches. Nonetheless, in the last round, Talleres stumbled again, losing at home to Tigre with a 1-2 scoreline. As a result, after six rounds, the club has just one win, 5 points, and is second-to-last in their group.
Possible Lineups
- River Plate: Armani, Montiel, Pezzella, Martinez, Acuña, Perez, Mesa, Simon, Martinez, Tapia, Colidio
- Talleres Córdoba: Herrera, Benavides, Portillo, Rodriguez, Riveros, Portilla, Ortegoza, Depietri, Reynoso, Rique, Girotti

Prediction
The instability of Córdoba raises doubts about the team's readiness for the final showdown. River remains among the main favorites of the season, and the final match for the Super Cup is no exception. Bookmakers favor River Plate's victory, offering odds of 1.96 for the team's success. We find it hard to disagree with this assessment.
