Betting on Junior
Junior was defeated in the final moments of last weekend’s match against Deportivo Pasto and the fans of the shark team are furious after a series of bad results. One of the team’s main players, Carlos Bacca, asked for patience and star player Juan Fernando Quintero said that the team is working hard to get out of this terrible start to the tournament.
Junior’s high command gave a vote of confidence to coach Arturo Reyes, but if he does not get the three points against La Equidad, he will surely be fired, as the atmosphere at the Metropolitano would be untenable.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Sebastian Viera; Edwin Herrera, Iván Scarpeta, Daniel Rosero, Amaury Torralvo; Homer Martínez, Carlos Sierra; Omar Albornoz, Juan Fernando Quintero, Vladimir Hernández; Carlos Bacca.
Betting on La Equidad
La Equidad confirmed on their social networks the arrival of Uruguayan central defender Alejandro Prieto, although for now it is not known if he will be included in the roster that will travel to Barranquilla to face Junior.
The visiting team comes from losing 0-1 at home against Santa Fe with a goal by Wilson Morelo.In that match in which they had several opportunities to level the actions, but in the end the team led by Alexis García was left empty-handed.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Washington Ortega; David Camacho, Daniel Polanco, Didier Bueno, Joiner Moreno; Pablo Lima, Joan Castro, Ederson Moreno, Kevin Londoño, Francisco Chaverra; Jorge Luis Ramos.
JefeBet Prediction
The last time these teams met in Barranquilla, Junior won 3-1 with goals from Miguel Borja, Luis González and Yesus Cabrera. Francisco Chaverra scored for Los Bogotanos in that Copa Sudamericana match on March 17, 2022.
Junior knows that it must take all the three points in this match and will surely come out like a storm on Saturday at the Metropolitano, which is why at JefeBet we believe that the Barranquilla team will finally achieve its longed-for first victory of the tournament.
Prediction: Junior Moneyline (JUN 2 – 1 EQUI).
