Betting on Envigado
The Heroes youth team enters the Envigado vs Santa Fe game with a decent performance in the current Primera División season. They are currently in eighth place with seven points out of a possible 21. However, they have struggled with scoring goals and have drawn in several matches.
In their most recent league game against América de Cali, Envigado lost 1-0 due to a goal by Facundo Esquivel in the 38th minute. The goal originated from a play that caught the defense of the Naranjas off guard, after a mistake from the Escarlatas’ goal.
As for the upcoming match against Santa Fe, it is expected that the Paisa team will have the home advantage and will be more precise with their shots. In their last game, they had a whopping 27 shots but failed to score any goals.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Joan Parra; Gendry Cuervo, Santiago Noreña, Jhon Banguera, Yeferson Rodallega; Edison López, Felipe Jaramillo, Juan Manuel Zapata, Luis Diaz, Henry Mosquera; Freddy Espinal.
Betting on Santa Fe
In the last round of Colombian soccer against Union Magdalena, the Bogota team drew 0-0 at home. The match was highly criticized due to the fact that Wilson Morelo, striker of the capital’s red team, missed two penalties against goalkeeper Ramiro Sanchez. Harold Rivera’s team faced problems in the midfield as they struggled to generate plays.
Currently, the Cardenales are in 11th place in the Colombian standings with six points, which includes their only win and two draws. In the upcoming Envigado vs Santa Fe clash, the Leones are expected to be aggressive and proactive.
Rivera is likely to include José Enamorado in the starting line-up and have Jeferson Rivas on the bench. Rivas was absent in the previous match, which left Morelo without the possibility of a substitution.
Possible lineup (3-6-1): José Silva; Kevin Mantilla, José Ajá, Julian Millán; Fabián Viáfara, Fabián Sambueza, Iván Rojas, José Enamorado, Christian Marrugo, Dairon Mosquera; Wilson Morelo.
JefeBet Prediction
We predict that the teams will split the points in this Envigado vs Santa Fe matchup.
The Naranja has demonstrated that despite a slow start, it has a team that can hold its own against its competitors. Although the setback on the previous league matchday was a painful blow, it may have been required to boost their confidence at home, where they have yet to lose.
Contrarily, Santa Fe has a sizable, talented, and experienced team, but the coach is nowhere to be found.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
