Bucaramanga Preview
For now, the Leopardos team does not feel the absence of striker Dayro Moreno, which was something of great concern for this tournament.
Coach Raúl Agustín Armando will surely repeat the team that has just won three points away against Atlético Huila, with Gonzalo Lencina, who is in a going through a great moment after his double in the previous match.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Cristopher Varela; Cristian Florez, Nicolas Marotta, Francisco Meza, Cristhian Subero; Victor Mejia, Diego Chavez; Jader Maza, Javier Reina, Gustavo Torres; Gonzalo Lencina.
Junior Preview
The goalkeeper and captain of the Junior team, Sebatian Viera, suffered an ankle injury, but this will not prevent him from being part of the match.
Junior announced the signing of Uruguayan central defender Federico Andueza, who could be available to make his debut on the matchday 4 against Unión Magdalena.
Coach Arturo Reyes knows that if he does not win this match, the pressure over his shoulders will get heavier, considering the great investment made by the board of directors for this tournament. A large part of the Barranquilla fans do not like Reyes, and a third game without in a row without attaining the three points would make the atmosphere turn quite heated in the city.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Sebastian Viera; Edwin Herrera, José Ortiz, Homer Martínez, Walmer Pacheco; Leider Berdugo, Didier Moreno; Luis González, Juan Fernando Quintero, Omar Albornoz; Carlos Bacca.
JefeBet Prediction
Junior is one of the main favorites in the FPC in 2023, but so far the team has only managed to achieve a couple of draws. In fact, the team is starting to feel the pressure of its always demanding fans.
In their last visit to Bucaramanga, Junior won 0-1 with a goal scored by Venezuelan Luis Cariaco González, and at JefeBet we believe that in this match that score will be repeated. This would mean that the team from the coastal region would achieve its first victory of the championship.
Prediction: Moneyline of Junior (BUC 0-1 JUN).
