One of the most powerful teams in Peru managed to stay in the race after the last matchday of the Libertadores with an excellent draw at Fluminense’s home and the help of River Plate.

Led by Brazilian coach Tiago Nunes, the team was able to secure third place in one of the toughest groups in the tournament, despite having a negative goal difference, scoring eight goals and conceding ten.

For this knockout stage, it is crucial for the team to improve its performance at home, as it was only able to win one out of the three matches it played in its own stadium during the group stage. However, Sporting Cristal’s away production improved as the team managed to secure four out of nine possible points.

When it comes to its performance in the local championship, Sporting Cristal remains undefeated in the current Clausura tournament after three matches played, and the team has not lost in its last 10 home matches. Moreover, Sporting has scored 20 goals, conceded seven, and kept five clean sheets.

This defensive solidity will be crucial in stopping Emelec, a team that also lacks a powerful offense, especially when playing away. That is why it is a good option to visit Codere and bet on the exact number of goals by the visiting team (0-1), with odds of (-233), giving you the chance to win up to $43 for every $100 you bet.

Probable lineup (4-3-3): Renato Solís; Jesús Castillo, Ignácio da Silva, Rafael Lutiger, Nilson Loyola; Jhilmar Lora, Jesús Pretell, Yoshimar Yotún; Joao Grimaldo, Brenner, Alejandro Hohberg.

Amidst a rather turbulent campaign, Emelec aims to regain momentum after finishing in second place in its tough Copa Sudamericana group.

The Ecuadorian team only lost one of its six matches in the continental championship, but its success came mainly from its performances at home.

On the road, under the guidance of Hernán Torres, the team failed to secure three points, recording only two draws out of the three matches played, and it conceded as many as five goals in those away games.

In fact, in the Ecuadorian championship, Emelec finished in 13th place out of 16 teams. The team was not productive at all when playing away. In the First Stage, Emelec only managed to gather five points out of a possible 24. Although it scored 11 goals, the team also conceded 14, which was one of the highest numbers in the league.

Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Pedro Ortiz; Bryan Carabalí, Caín Fara, Luis Fernando León, Aníbal Leguizamón; Carlos Villalba, Francisco Cevallos; Edgar Lastre, Diego Gonzalo García, Miler Bolaños; Bryan Angulo.

El Jefe’s Prediction on Manchester United vs Leeds United

Despite being a fairly evenly matched game on paper, at the end of the day, Sporting Cristal, the home team, should come out on top, as it is currently going through a better moment than its opponents.

In addition to staying alive in one of the toughest groups in the Libertadores, the Peruvians remain undefeated in the local tournament. The team recently secured a great draw in Brazil and has only suffered one loss in its last 15 home matches, including both domestic and Libertadores competitions..

On the other hand, it is also worth noting that Emelec managed to advance from a tough group in the Sudamericana. However, its opponents were not as strong as those facing Sporting Cristal, and the team struggled to produce positive results in general when playing away.

Another noteworthy fact is that the Ecuadorian league has not seen any action since June 18th. Therefore, while Emelec may arrive more well-rested, the team must do so with less momentum than the home team. This gives you even more reason to head over to Codere and bet on the Moneyline of Sporting Cristal, which is set at (+115). With this bet, you have the chance to win up to $115 for every $100 betted.
