Betting on Guarani
Guaraní is experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions lately. The team has been going through all sorts of results in its recent matches, the latest being a 1-0 victory over Resistencia on matchday 15 of the Paraguayan League, where it currently occupies third place in the standings.
On the international stage, Rodrigo López’s team made its debut in the 2023 Copa Sudamericana, suffering a harsh 4-1 defeat in its visit to Huracán. However, during the last matchday, the Aurinegro managed to bounce back on its feet with a 2-1 victory at home against the always tough Danubio.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Rodrigo Muñoz; Raúl Cáceres, Gustavo Vargas, Thiago Servín, Walter Clar; Luis Martínez, Darío Ríos, Rodrigo Amarilla, Romeo Benítez; Luis Fariña, Federico Santander.
Betting on Emelec
Even though internationally it has the same amount of points as its upcoming opponent, Emelec is not going through a good moment in terms of performance. In the Ecuadorian League, the team from the city of Guayaquil is going through a tough stretch of negative results, which have placed the team in 12th position. Its last setback was a 2-3 loss against Independiente del Valle.
Miguel Rondelli’s squad debuted in the 2023 Copa Sudamericana with a harsh 0-2 away loss against Danubio. However, in the second matchday, the Azul team managed to level things up in Group B by winning by the minimum difference at home against Huracán.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Pedro Ortiz; Cain Fara, Luis Fernando Leon, Anibal Leguizamon; Christian Valencia, Jose Cevallos, Jose Alberti, Romario Caicedo, Christian Cruz; Diego Garcia, Alejandro Cabeza.
JefeBet Prediction
Soccer teams from Ecuador have always been known for their physical intensity when facing crucial challenges. This will be one of those challenges for Emelec, which, despite playing away, will have to rely on its sportsmanship and fighting spirit. In a match as evenly matched as this one, at Jefebet, we predict a favorable outcome for the visiting team.
Prediction: Emelec Moneyline (GUA 0-1 EME)
