To place bets on the Argentine Primera Division, Stake Sportsbook is one of the best platforms. In fact, Stake is a premier online sportsbook for all types of soccer betting. This includes both club and international competitions. Of course, since the Argentine Primera Division isn’t the best-known league in the world, it’s best to read our betting guide before placing any wagers on the competition.
What is the Argentine Primera Division?
The Argentine Primera Division is a professional football league in Argentina. It’s the highest pro level in the country, home to the best Argentina soccer clubs and some of the most successful teams in South American club soccer like Boca Juniors and River Plate. It is also among the top football leagues in South America. In fact, the top teams in the league also participate in international competitions.
History of the Argentine Primera Division
The Argentine Primera Division was first founded in 1891. At the time, Argentina was just the fourth country - England, Scotland, and Ireland being the others - to have a national soccer league. At that time, just four teams were participating. That number had grown to 18 by 1931 when the Argentine Primera Division became a professional league.
Format & Schedule of the Argentine Primera Division
There are two phases to the Argentine Primera Division season, which features 30 teams. In the group stage, the 30 teams are divided into 2 zones with 15 teams each. Every team plays a single round-robin against the teams in their zone and two crossover games against teams from the other zone.
After every team has played 16 games during the group stage, the top 8 teams from each zone advance to the knockout stage. The 16 teams play a single elimination tournament with every round being a single game. The winner of the group stage and the winner of the knockout stage both qualify for the Copa Libertadores the following year.
In the long history of the Primera Division, 28 teams have won the championship at least once. River Plate has the most championships with 38, followed closely by Boca Juniors, which has won 35. Those two clubs are Argentina’s most successful and arguably have the country’s greatest rivalry.
Since the Argentine Primera Division has promotion and relegation, the list of participating teams changes every year. Each season, two teams are relegated to Primera Nacional, Argentina’s second division, while the two best teams in Primera Nacional join the Primera Division the following year. For the 2025 season, these are the 30 teams in the Argentine Primera Division.

How to Bet on Argentine Primera Division & Soccer Bet Types
There is no shortage of betting options when looking at Argentine Primera Division odds. Some bets are based on the outcome of games while others cover different aspects of a league match. Here are some of the common types of soccer bets you’ll find for Argentine Primera Division games:
Moneyline - Similar to many sports, a moneyline bet is a wager on the winner and loser of a game.
1x2 - Unlike American Football, soccer has three possible outcomes. Either Team 1 wins, Team 2 wins, or there is a draw, so there must be odds for all three outcomes.
Asian Totals - This is a bet made on the total number of goals scored in a match. However, with Asian totals, the increments are .25 rather than .5. For example, if you bet over 2.75 total goals, half of your stake is bet on over 2.5 goals and half of your stake is bet on over 3 goals.
Handicap - With a handicap bet, the favoured team must win by a certain margin. For example, if San Lorenzo is a 1.5-goal favourite over Godoy Cruz, San Lorenzo must win by at least two goals; otherwise, Godoy Cruz will win the bet.
Halftime/Fulltime - This is a two-part bet in which you predict what team is leading at halftime - or if it will be tied - and what team will win the game - or if it will end in a tie.
Both Teams to Score - This is a bet based on both teams scoring at least 1 goal in a game. The other option is to bet on at least one team being shut out.
Correct Score - It’s possible to bet on the exact score of a soccer match, which is a realistic bet to make because most games are low-scoring.
1st Goal - This is a bet on what team will score the first goal of the game. It can also refer to the player who is the first goal scorer in a game.
Double Chance - This is a popular betting market because it allows someone to bet on two of the three possible outcomes of a match. Of course, the payout is lower with this type of bet because the odds increase.

Soccer & Football Betting Tips, Predictions & Strategies

You may want to follow an established strategy like the Kelly Criterion System or develop your own personal style of sports betting. Either way, there are a few things to keep in mind.
Only bet on games when you are familiar with the personnel of both teams and understand the strengths and weaknesses of both teams.
Look at a recent injury report for both teams to see if any key players could be missing.
Consider factors like home-field advantage and whether one team has more motivation than the other.
Look closely at the recent results and performances of each team. If one team has had a better run of games recently, they may have an edge.
