Betting on Club Atletico Bucaramanga
Bucaramanga heads into this Bucaramanga vs Union Magdalena matchup with a record that isn’t improving, as it has gone 13 consecutive matches without tasting victory. In fact, out of the 17 games played so far, the Búcaros have only won twice.
In the last match against Boyacá Chicó, Bucaramanga drew 0-0 away. During the game, Bucaramanga had several chances to score, and it didn’t give any space for the chess players to reach Varela’s goal. However, once again, its attack was missing.
Therefore, in the Bucaramanga vs Union Magdalena match, it’s expected that the former will improve its numbers as it has played six consecutive home games without winning.
Possible Lineup (3-3-4): Cristopher Varela; Francisco Meza, Nicolas Marotta, David Gomez; Jork Becerra, Victor Mejia, Diego Chavez; Hadier Borja, Gustavo Torres, Javier Reina, Gonzalo Lencina.
Betting on Union Magdalena
Union Magdalena arrives at this Bucaramanga vs Union Magdalena game with an unfortunate record, and just one spot ahead of its opponent this time around. Nevertheless, the league is even, and a victory could move this team several positions up.
The team’s most recent match was against Pasto at home, where it won 2-1. Although the game was very close, precision played in its favor, and Union Magdalena managed to open the scoreboard with an early goal from Yamil Romero. Then, Isaac Camargo, true to his striker instinct, made things difficult for the volcanic team.
For this new matchday, it is expected that the Santa Marta team will attack on enemy grounds and break the barriers of this Bucaramanga team that is not at all fearsome.
Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Ramiro Sánchez; José Mercado, Jermein Peña, Nicolás Gil, Brayan Correa; Alexander Mejía, Fabián Cantillo, Gianfranco Baier, Yamil Romero, Joel Contreras; Isaac Camargo.
JefeBet Prediction
Bucaramanga has a better record and history on its side for this match-up. However, the team hasn’t been consistent enough this season. In fact, Bucaramanga is going through a tough time and playing at home won’t make a significant difference.
Union Magdalena, on the other hand, has been a real rollercoaster this season, and it hasn’t won any of the last eight away games. Nevertheless, it’s clear that this will be a great spectacle as it’s the final stretch of the round robin, and at JefeBet, we believe that the points will be shared in this Bucaramanga vs Union Magdalena matchup.
Prediction: Tie (BUC 1-1 UNI).
