An unassuming clash
Deportivo Riestra and Atletico Lanus come into this Monday’s Liga Profesional 2025 encounter without a point to their name, sitting 11th and 19th in the table respectively, although neither have played yet. Gustavo Benitez has led the hosts since February 2025 and has installed an extremely organised and compact team that have the energy to stick together and the grit to be a real nuisance for the opposition.
They’ve lost just one of their last 5 matches in all competitions (W2, D2, L1) and are coming off the back of an impressive 3-0 home win over Godoy Cruz, whilst their success in penalty shoot-outs against Deportivo Armenio in their previous fixture shows that they have the nerve to keep their cool and keep grinding out results in knockout fixtures. This Deportivo Riestra vs Atletico Lanus betting tips feature highlights their ability to hold firm even in high-stake moments.
Atletico Lanus are an entirely different beast to Deportivo Riestra and Mauricio Pellegrino has done an admirable job since taking over the reins in January 2025. The club play possession-based football with technical players that work the ball at their own pace and create chances in a structured way. Our Deportivo Riestra vs Atletico Lanus prediction suggests that Lanus look to break teams down, which could be a problem against a team like Deportivo Riestra who are so compact. For those interested, the Deportivo Riestra vs Atletico Lanus odds further underline how close this battle may be.
