Two teams with different present situations will face each other this Saturday, May 13th, in the highly anticipated Libertad vs Barcelona SC match, for the 10th matchday of the Ecuadorian League. The home team is having a tough time and arrives at this match as the worst team in the standings. It hasn’t won a game in two months and urgently needs a victory to improve its current record.
On the other hand, the visitors are competing neck and neck with Independiente del Valle for the top spot in the standings. Therefore, this team requires a win here to keep up with its opponent. Unlike its weekend rival, the Guayaquil team has the second-highest number of victories, while the Loja team has only one win to its name.
Without further introduction, JefeBet presents this preview for the Libertad vs Barcelona SC duel with odds, predictions, possible lineups and much more.

Betting on Libertad Fútbol Club
Libertad only has one victory in nine matches in the Ecuadorian League, which is the reason it is currently in last place. The team’s record also includes four draws and four losses. Despite its poor record, the good news is that it has managed to secure three of the four draws in its last five matches.
Libertad’s only victory was against Deportivo Cuenca with a score of 3-1 back in March. However, it has been two months since then and this team has gone seven matches without a win, with three losses and four draws. Although the situation is not encouraging, Libertad deserves some applause for remaining unbeaten at home, with one win and three draws.
Its last two performances have ended in a 0-0 draw, and these two clean sheets are a good sign of what is to come.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): José Luis Angulo; Jordan Chillambo, Yardely Rodriguez, Cristian Enciso, Federico Arbeláez; Roberto Garcés, Andrés Felipe Ávila, Arnaldo Valverde, Renny Sinisterra; Anderson Naula, Sergio Sosa.
Betting on Barcelona Sporting Club
Barcelona SC scored a stunning 5-1 victory against Aucas over the weekend, securing its sixth win of the season. This puts it in second place for most wins in the tournament, just behind Independiente del Valle, who has seven.
In local tournaments, Barcelona SC hasn’t lost since March 18th, when it was defeated 1-0 by the aforementioned Independiente del Valle. Currently, this team has an impressive six-game unbeaten streak, which is its longest positive run this year.
While the Guayaquil team is one of the best this season, it doesn’t perform as well when playing away from home. So far, it has only won one out of four away games, and in fact, this team lost three out of five away games in all competitions.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Víctor Mendoza; Mario Pineida, Carlos Rodríguez, Luca Sosa, Segundo Portocarrero; Christian Ortiz, Fernando Gaibor, Leonai Souza de Almeida, Gabriel Cortez; Janner Corozo, Francisco Fydriszewski.
JefeBet Prediction
Even though Barcelona SC’s away statistics don’t favor it, this team is still the favorite to win this match, mainly because it will face the worst team in the tournament. Libertad hasn’t scored in the last two home games, while Barcelona SC has scored at least one goal in four of the last five away games. This suggests that only one team may score in this match.
Therefore, at JefeBet, we predict a victory for the away team without conceding any goals. If you bet $100 on both teams not to score (+105), you will get a profit of $105 at Codere MX. Don’t hesitate to take the risk!
Prediction: Moneyline Barcelona SC and Both teams score: NO (LIB 0-2 BAR)
