My Prediction
Tigre by 1Pardon the quip, but if you need heart medication to endure a thrilling soccer match, you might want to skip this one. We're talking about Tigre vs. Instituto Córdoba, and it might be more akin to watching water boil, only with more sweaty men.
Under their net, Instituto Córdoba has Manuel Roffo, boasting a rating of 6.67 with 11 saves this season, while Tigre has Felipe Zenobio, a bit sparklier with a rating of 7.18 and 12 saves. This dusty horse race might somewhat lean in favor of Tigre, based on the keepers alone.
On the field, both squads bring equally mediocre talent, Henri Matisse, they are not. For Instituto Córdoba, Damian Puebla and Lucas Rodríguez are the standouts, each with a 7.00 rating. Puebla has managed to get one past the goalies but hasn't been exactly lighting up the scoreboard. His accompanying act, Rodríguez, has failed to score once, resembling me at my high school prom. For Tigre, Nehuen Paz with a rating of 7.02, seems to observe the game rather than contribute, hinting a future career as a commentator, perhaps. Darío Sarmiento with 6.95 rating shadows him nicely in mediocrity.
Instituto Córdoba seems to have a slightly rougher regular season record with 9 wins, 5 draws, and 9 losses compared to Tigre's 7-8-8 showing. Recent results have been a mixed bag for both. Instituto Córdoba, having recently claimed the scalp of Argentinos Juniors, has tasted defeat more than victory, whereas Tigre, salivating of a stalemate, claimed a sole victory over Banfield, all while appearing to have an aversion to netting the ball.
Taking everything into account, my prediction...
