I back the home win. River Plate have strong home conditions: 71% home win rate, averaging 2.00 goals per match and 2.19 xG, with 22 goals scored this season. Atlético Tucumán have 0% away wins, score only 0.86 goals on average and have 1.21 xG on the road, while conceding 2.00 goals on average away and recording no clean sheets (0%). At home River average 21.43 shots and 6.71 on target versus the visitors' 10.14 shots and 2.57 on target, and the average xG conceded is 0.81 vs 1.54, which indicates superiority in chance quality and lower risk of conceding. Considering form (River 4 wins in the last 5 matches and an average of 2.4 points per game vs 1.0 points for the visitors) and the above statistics, I assess probabilities as 72% for the home side, 18% for a draw and 10% for an away win.
