Betting on Carlos Mannucci
Carlos Mannucci, a team that was performing well during the Apertura phase of Liga 1, has hit a rough patch in its last few matches. These setbacks have eliminated any possibility of winning the first title of the year. Its chances were completely dashed when the team lost at home by a narrow difference to UTC on May 17th.
Under the guidance of coach Mario Viera, the team is currently in 4th place and is looking to get back on track to not only please its crowd at the Mansiche, but also to finish the first phase of the tournament on the podium with a good chance of competing until the end in the annual accumulated standings.
It is worth mentioning that the Carlos Mannucci squad is coming off a rest day, so it will be well-rested for its next game.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Manuel Heredia; Erick Perleche, Matías Cotarve, Maximiliano Amondarain, Alexis Cossio; Erick Gonzales, Tarek Carranza; Michael Rasmussen, Raziel García, Léiner Escalante; Matías Succar.
Betting on Melgar
Melgar is still in the process of rebuilding itself under the leadership of Mariano Soso. Despite some bumps along the way, in the last matchday, the Rojinegro squad achieved its most significant victory so far in 2023 by defeating Alianza Lima, the current championship leader, 2-1 at home in the UNSA Stadium.
This triumph propelled the Dominó team to the 12th position in the standings with 18 points, leaving behind the murky moments that marked the beginning of the year.
However, the good result attained in the Peruvian championship was overshadowed last Wednesday when the volcanic team lost by the minimum difference at home to Colombia’s Atlético Nacional in the Copa Libertadores. With this defeat, the home team lost any chance of advancing in the international tournament. Additionally, the team was heavily criticized for the loss, as it had an extra man on the field for 40 minutes of play.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Carlos Cáceda; Matías Lazo, Leonardo Galeano, Sebastián Cavero; Horacio Orzán, Jean Pierre Archimbaud, Walter Tandazo, Tomás Martínez, Cristian Bordachar; Pablo Magnín, Bernardo Cuesta.
JefeBet Prediction
It is worth mentioning that the Carlos Mannucci team is a strong team at home. So far this season, the team has only lost once in the city of Trujillo, which makes us, at JefeBet, believe we should bet on a home team win.
