- Nueva Chicago have struggled away, winning just 3 of 11 on the road.

Mauricio Giganti must have patience
CA All Boys have the form-book's 2nd best home record in the Primera Nacional 2026, a 3-9-0 record that has seen El Albo concede just 8 goals on their own turf. However, the hosts have drawn their last three at home and look likely to play tough but make no progress in a tight derby against a rejuvenated Nueva Chicago on Monday. Mauricio Giganti has tried to make All Boys a more positive force since taking over the club earlier in the season, changing the shape to a 4-1-3-2 but not ditching the spine that makes this side stubborn. This preview suggests a game that could stay tight throughout.
Nueva Chicago have won just 3 of 11 on the road in the Primera Nacional 2026, drawing 1 and losing 7, shipping 14 goals in total. They travel to Buenos Aires having lost 3 consecutive away matches, a worrying omen of things to come in what is an away derby. Germán Lanaro has installed a vertical, transition-based game model at Nueva Chicago, with a 4-1-4-1 base and more aggressive cues for his players. That has made them more interesting, but their last 2 results, a 2-1 home win over San Martin de Tucuman and a 2-0 away defeat to Gimnasia y Tiro, are indicative of a side tough to break down but short of bite in attack. Our CA All Boys vs Nueva Chicago prediction is that neither side will find much room to operate.
Lack of goals looks a shrewd pick
Oddsmakers make All Boys a narrow 2.58 favorite here, with Chicago 2.97 and the draw just a little higher at 2.59. This game looks a lot closer than that, and the head-to-head record in Primera Nacional 2026 matches between the sides points to a cagey draw, with Chicago ahead on 1 win and a draw from 2 meetings. All Boys are unbeaten in their last 3 home matches, but have drawn all of those games. All Boys will look to dominate, Nueva Chicago will look to create chaos.
Both Teams To Score - No at 1.44 and Under 2.5 Goals at 1.23 look the way to go in this match. Nueva Chicago will set up to play on the break and All Boys will need to keep the ball to dominate, but we don't see many goals here. Maximiliano Rogoski leads the way for the visitors with 5 goals from 22 Primera Nacional 2026 games, while Alejo Tabares has 2 from 23 as the best All Boys attacker. Mauro Simon Perez has scored 2 of Chicago's last 3 goals in his last 5 appearances and looks the best shout for an anytime goal here. One of the clearest betting tips for CA All Boys vs Nueva Chicago is to back under 2.5 goals.
