Two solid sides with different styles
Instituto de Cordoba and Atletico Huracán meet in the Round of 16 of the Copa Argentina 2025 with both teams in contrasting form and bringing contrasting styles to the contest.
Although Huracán pipped Instituto 1-0 in their most recent clash in the Copa de la Liga Profesional on 25 May 2024, Instituto won the earlier fixture 2-0 on home turf in March.
Since that win, Instituto’s defensive frailties have cost them too many points in all competitions they have played in this year.
The average of 1.6 goals per game conceded in their last 10 fixtures across all comps is simply not good enough for a team that wants to push up the league table and make a run in the cup.
In our Instituto de Cordoba vs Atletico Huracan preview, Instituto have no real stars, but their attack is strong as a collective force in a 4-2-3-1 formation that relies on good buildup play.
However, they have defensive lapses that have cost them crucial points.
Huracán have the momentum
Manager Frank Darío Kudelka has brought a defensive discipline to Huracán and a pressing style that allows them to switch quickly when they win possession and counter-attack.
They have an array of talented players going forward and average 18 shots per match this term, so it is no surprise that the 4-4-2 system works well for them.
Both clubs have no major injury issues to contend with, but Instituto may have to change things up slightly as their defensive players have not been as solid as they could be amid fixture congestion.
Looking at the Instituto de Cordoba vs Atletico Huracan odds, Huracán are the favourites at +116 with Instituto available at +231, which looks like an accurate reflection of their form and solidity.
Huracán will come into this game with the best momentum and can nick the victory, so we’ll take a narrow Huracán win. This fits with our Instituto de Cordoba vs Atletico Huracan prediction, as Huracán's solid structure and attacking options make them favourites for the clash.
