- Both All Boys and Mitre finished in mid-table in the Primera Nacional in 2025, finishing 10th and 13th respectively.
- Under 2.5 goals looks a solid wager for Saturday’s season opener at 1.28.
- All Boys have conceded one goal in their last five competitive games.
All Boys’ Alamo
The hosts are narrow favourites with the oddsmakers for the opening game of the season at 1.98, but CA All Boys vs Club Atletico Mitre prediction suggests that Club Atletico Mitre will not be pushovers at 4.41 and the tie at 2.72 looks the best option for Saturday’s Primera Nacional clash at the Estadio Islas Malvinas. The sides have split their two Primera Nacional meetings since 2018, with one win apiece and no ties, but they will both be determined to make a good start to the season and put last season’s mid-table mediocrity behind them.
Aníbal Biggeri has been in charge since July 2025 to instill his tactical ideas and philosophy at All Boys and the early signs have been very positive. They finished 2025 with four consecutive ties, before recording a commanding 3-0 win.
Biggeri has seen enough from his men to make this team tough to beat and, although the CA All Boys vs Club Atletico Mitre preview indicates they are not a natural goal-scoring side, they have enough quality to find the net when they need to. Veteran defender Jonathan Ferrari is the leader at the back, where the side have kept a string of clean sheets coming into this season. Goalkeepers Tiago Libares and Lukas Ramil Sauer also deserve credit for keeping several points on the board for El Albo as the side drew several of their late matches.
Mitre will make a plan
Carlos Mayor has had only a few months at the club after taking over in November 2025, but his pragmatic and disciplined approach appears to have calmed down a squad in transition. Mitre finished 13th in their 2025 zone with 40 points, one fewer than All Boys, and their final five matches ended in one win, two ties and two defeats, which indicated an inconsistent team.
El Aurinegro are a team that looks to play a low defensive block and hit on the counter, and their two wide midfielders will be expected to work hard in the defensive third while looking to provide support in the transition to counterattack. Matías Kabalin is the controller of the game from the middle of the park and is just as good defensively as he is going forward, making him a key component of Mayor’s 4-4-2/4-5-1 system.
Santiago Rosales is an experienced and reliable attacker who can create chances as well as finish them, while Marcos Machado is another player who can give Mitre that extra spark in the attacking third, especially if Mayor’s team can get in on the break. For those seeking CA All Boys vs Club Atletico Mitre betting tips, it will be important to monitor these players’ form.
Stalemate likely
Biggeri will have his All Boys playing a high-tempo style with the wing-backs providing overloads in the final third and the forwards looking for quick transitions. Mitre will sit back and try to disrupt All Boys’ passing rhythm and hit on the fast break using wide midfielders. The clash of All Boys’ pressing and wing-play against Mitre’s low block and counter-attack could be an interesting chess match on Saturday with the tempo of the match and space in behind both defensive lines crucial to the flow of the action.
Backing under 2.5 goals makes sense in this contest because neither team is going to gift many chances to the opposition in a game with clear weather in Buenos Aires. Our CA All Boys vs Club Atletico Mitre prediction is that All Boys are better defensively than they are going forward, so we will take a narrow All Boys win or tie in the 90 minutes. The CA All Boys vs Club Atletico Mitre prediction this Saturday is for a closely contested affair with scoring chances at a premium.
