Boston River vs Independiente Prediction and Betting Tips | May 6th 2025

Boston River and Independiente return to action in Group A of the Copa Sudamericana when they lock horns at the Centenario Stadium on Tuesday. Both sides head into the midweek clash in contrasting form, with the Argentine outfit failing to taste victory in their last four games.

Nineteen-year-old Agustín Albarracín grabbed the headlines for Boston River as he netted the only goal of the game to hand them a 1-0 victory over Montevideo Wanderers in the Uruguayan Liga AUF last Friday.

Jadson Viera’s side men have now won five games on the trot across all competitions, including a 2-1 victory over Nacional Potosi in the Copa Sudamericana on April 22.

Boston River have picked up four points from their opening three matches in Group A of the Sudamericana to sit second in the standings, one point and two places above rock-bottom Independiente.

Independiente failed to find their feet last time out as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Rosario Central at the Estadio Gigante de Arroyito in the Argentine Primera Division.

Julio Vaccari’s men have gone four straight games without a win, claiming one draw and losing three, including a 2-1 loss against Guarani in the Sudamericana on April 22.

This poor run of results has been due to their lack of firepower at the attacking end of the pitch, where they have failed to find the back of the net in their last three outings since the loss to Guarani.
