Betting on Deportes Tolima
The Pijaos arrive to this Deportes Tolima vs Deportivo Cali match with a very different performance compared to the last seasons. The Ibagué team occupies the 12th place in the standings with only 5 points out of a possible 12. The team coached by Hernán Torres will receive the visiting team without admission to the public, taking into account the incident that took place a few days ago in the match against Millonarios.
In its last league match against Atlético Huila, Tolima drew goalless. In that match, chances came from both sides, but the goalkeepers played a key role, as so did the defensive lines.. In the second half of the match, the Vinotinto y Oro was stronger, but its strength was not enough to score a goal.
For this new Deportes Tolima vs Deportivo Cali match, the team from Ibaguiera is expected to fight for the three points. The performance of attacker Juan Fernando Caicedo was outstanding in the last match and his abilities could be key to take the victory against Deportivo Cali.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): William Cuesta; Léider Riascos, Julián Quiñones, Anderson Angulo, Junior Hernández; Cristian Trujillo, Juan Manuel Valencia, Álvaro Meléndez, Yeison Guzmán, Jeison Lucumí; Juan Fernando Caicedo.
Betting on Deportivo Cali
In the last matchday of Colombian soccer against Águilas Doradas, the Cali team drew 1-1 at home, in a very exciting match that made the visiting team suffer until the last minute. Águilas’ Jean Pineda opened the scoring with a goal in the 46th minute. Then, in the 55th minute, it was Andrés Arroyo who scored a shot from outside the area to even the match.
The Azucarero occupies the 16th place in the Colombian standings with three points, the result of three draws. For this new match between Deportes Tolima vs Deportivo Cali, the Cali team will have to be more consistent in attack, creating opportunities with one of its star players, Daniel Mantilla.
Possible lineup (3-6-1): Kevin Dawson; Aldair Gutiérrez, José Caldera, Germán Mera; Juan José Tello, Rafael Bustamante, Jimmy Congo, Andrés Arroyo, Daniel Mantilla, Kevin Velasco; Gustavo Ramírez.
JefeBet Prediction
In this new Deportes Tolima vs Deportivo Cali clash, we believe that it will be the home team who will take the 3 points.
Despite its modest start, Pijao has an important roster and the pressure to achieve something after a difficult season last year is on. Although the team will not have the support of its home crowd, they could still show a different and fresh approach that could it them get the points at home like it did on its last match. Jorge Luis Pinto’s team is no pushover, and that could set the tone for an exciting match.
Prediction: Deportes Tolima wins 1-0.
