Betting on Club Olimpia
El Decano is currently standing at fourth place in the main Paraguayan tournament and is hoping to secure its fourth home victory in this upcoming match.
The Asunción team has won five times this season, and although it hasn’t shown outstanding performance, it is the typical team that complicates others with a solid defense. One of its great advantages is its precision in attack, currently being the second club with the most goals scored this season.
Its last game was against Sportivo Luqueno, away, and it lost 1-0 due to an unfortunate own goal by Iván Torres. After 12 matchdays, Diego Aguirre’s squad has accumulated 19 points and is 9 points behind the leader, Libertad, whom it defeated a couple of weeks ago. Undoubtedly, the O will seek to secure the three points against an unfavored team.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Juan Espínola; Víctor Salazar, Antolín Alcaraz, Junior Barreto, Iván Torres; Marcos Gómez, Alejandro Silva, Victor Quintana, Diego Torres; Fernando Cardozo, Guillermo Paiva.
Betting on Club Nacional
The team led by Paraguayan Pedro Sarabia has had a tough season so far, with only three wins in twelve matches played, and its playing style still does not generate excitement.
In its last game at home against Guairena, it managed a 2-2 draw thanks to Gustavo Aguilar’s sublime performance, scoring a double and giving the team a breather after falling behind on the scoreboard.
Currently, the tricolor has accumulated 13 points and completed five consecutive winless matchdays. It is hoped that in this upcoming opportunity, it will secure an away victory with the help of its attackers Fleitas and Aguilar, who are currently the hope of this team’s followers.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Héctor Espínola; Richard Cabrera, Carlos Rolón, Francisco Báez, Fernando Román Villalba; Feliciano Brizuela, Leandro Meza, Edgardo Orzusa, Sebastián Vargas; David Fleitas, Gustavo Aguilar.
JefeBet Prediction
This clash is sure to be full of pace. The home team is still searching for its identity, but it has found favorable results along the way, which have kept it stable in the standings.
Given the pressure of having only won two out of the last five games, and with a good squad, Olimpia will likely try to break through Nacional’s defense from the opening whistle. Based on the current conditions of both teams and their recent results, at JefeBet, we believe that the home team will take all three points.
