Betting on Estudiantes de Merida
Estudiantes de Merida arrives at this match after a great victory over La Guaria last weekend. This granted the team a two-game winning streak in the Venezuelan first division tournament after having also crushed Zamora by 1-5, an important victory for a team that started with two consecutive losses.
The team currently holds the seventh place in the overall scoreboard, and is hoping to move up against a tough opponent on Wednesday. The numbers at the Metropolitano de Mérida stadium have not been the best in its last matches, since the team lost their 3 most recent games played.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Beycker Velásquez; Juan Medina, Edison Penilla, Alexis Doldan, Devinson Martínez; Cristian Flores, Aaron Rodríguez; Jorge Páez, Wilfredo Peña, Jesús Gómez; Junior Paredes.
Betting on Deportivo Tachira
Deportivo Tachira has been one of the best teams at the start of the Venezuelan league, as evidenced by its 5-0 win over Rayo Zuliano on February 4. With this victory, the visitors have now won three times in a row, placing them in second place in the general scoreboard of their domestic competition.
The numbers on enemy grounds are encouraging, as it has only lost one of the seven away games, obtaining five wins and one draw. In addition, it is one of the most scoring teams with goals scored in 5 matchdays of the Venezuelan league, registering 5 goals so far.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Alejandro Araque; Nelson Hernández, Jiovany Ramos, Gonzalo Mottes, José Marrufo; Leandro Fioravanti, Maurice Cova; Diomar Díaz, Yerson Chacón, Esli García; Edder Farías.
JefeBet Prediction
Although playing at home is a great advantage, Tachira is the great favorite to go through on Wednesday due to its tremendous start as local. In addition, the team has done really well against Estudiantes de Merida, beating them in their 3 most recent games, scoring 6 goals and conceding just one.
In fact, they have not lost against Merida in the last 6 clashes, and the last game between them ended with a 3-0 win by Tachira. Therefore, the visiting team is expected to get a great result from this visit, which allows the team to dream of reaching the group stage of the Copa Sudamericana.
Prediction: Deportivo Tachira Asian Handicap (EST 1-2 TAC)
