Betting on Millonarios
Alberto Gamero’s team arrives at this decisive match experiencing its best moment. Millonarios is currently leading the Colombian League’s Apertura Tournament with 21 points, one more than Boyacá Chicó and América de Cali. As if that wasn’t enough, the team has a winning streak of seven games without a loss. The last defeat was on February 26 in its away match against Once Caldas.
Millonarios has a lot of statistical advantages, with three wins and one draw, the team still hasn’t lost a match in front of its home crowd. Moreover, in the four challenges, Millonarios scored two or more goals, which makes it tempting to bet on a high score for the home team.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Álvaro Montero; Elvis Perlaza, Oscar Vanegas, Juan Pablo Vargas, Samuel Asprilla; Daniel Giraldo, Larry Vásquez, Luis Paredes; David Silva, Daniel Cataño, Fernando Uribe or Leonardo Castro.
Betting on Defensa y Justicia
Julio Vaccari’s team is far from showing its best version. After a great start with four consecutive wins, which kept the team as the leader throughout the first month of competition, Defensa y Justicia has had four games without adding three points.
Although three of them were draws, such as last Friday’s against Vélez Sarsfield,the reality is that the team from Florencio Varela is in a soccer decline, from which it must soon emerge if it wants to fight in such a difficult zone as the one it has been assigned.
In the domestic tournament, Defensa y Justicia is the third-best team playing as visitors with two wins out of four games. However, it has already accumulated two games without a victory on the road, and without scoring against Boca Juniors and Platense, respectively. Will the team turn the page in this Millonarios vs Defensa y Justicia match?
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Ezequiel Unsain; Agustín Sant’Anna, Nazareno Colombo, Tomás Cardona, Alexis Soto; Kevin Gutiérrez, Julián López; Gabriel Alanís, David Barbona, Santiago Solari; Nicolás Fernández.
JefeBet Prediction
Two teams known for their attacking style of play face each other, but one of them finds itself with a really tight goal. And we say this because in the last four games, Defensa y Justicia has scored just one goal.
Millonarios, on the other hand, is the second highest scorer in its league with 16 goals, one less than Boyacá Chicó, its nearest rival. For this reason, JefeBet predicts a local celebration.
Prediction: Millonarios Moneyline (MIL 2-1 DEF).
