Betting on Millonarios Futbol Club
The Embajadores is coming into this Millonarios vs Independiente Medellin clash in top form, leading the league and with a dream debut in Copa Sudamericana under its belts. With its international duties out of the way, Millonarios will be looking to solidify its reign in the local championship.
Under the guidance of Alberto Gamero, the team is unstoppable, and spirits are high after its impressive 3-0 victory against Defensa y Justicia in the Copa Sudamericana. A double from Leo Castro, accompanied by a touch of Mackalister Silva who scored the third, made it a night to remember for fans of the albiazul squad.
Having only lost one of its ten Liga BetPlay matches, the team from Bogotá is expecting to come out on top where they’re strongest: at El Campín.
Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Álvaro Montero; Elvis Perlaza, Andrés Llinás, Jorge Arias, Samuel Asprilla; Juan Carlos Pereira, Larry Vásquez, Daniel Giraldo, Daniel Cataño, David Mackalister; Leonardo Castro.
Betting on Deportivo Independiente Medellin
As the visitor, the Equipo del Pueblo comes to this Millonarios vs Independiente Medellin match with a lackluster performance that hasn’t exactly dazzled anyone. In recent weeks, David Gonzalez’s team has been heavily criticized for its inconsistency, although it showed a lot of character and strength in its debut in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores.
In its last game against Internacional from Brazil, the Poderoso managed to secure a 1-1 draw. It started off strong with a goal from Víctor Moreno at the 52nd minute. However, towards the end of the game, Alan Patrick took advantage of a defensive mistake to equalize for the Brazilians.
For the upcoming match, it’s expected that the Rojos will use the momentum from its international competition and take advantage of the solid performance of goalkeeper Luis Vásquez. There were concerns about his ability to play due to an injury, but these have been resolved in a recent match. Currently, Medellin stands in eleventh place in the Colombian league with three wins in eleven games.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Luis Vasquez; Jordy Monroy, Victor Moreno, Andres Cadavid, Daniel Londoño; Daniel Torres, Jaime Alvarado, Emerson Batalla; Edwuin Cetré, Luciano Pons, Felipe Pardo.
JefeBet Prediction
The Embajadora has a great record and the home advantage in this match favors it. Its unbeaten streak and the quality of its players are fundamental weapons to take the victory. Medellin played a great match against Inter, but it is not consistent in the league.
Furthermore, the advantage, besides the team’s spirit, could be that Millonarios is strong even if Gamero uses an alternate lineup, as previously shown. It is clear that this will be a spectacular showdown, and at JefeBet, we believe that in this Millonarios vs Independiente Medellin, the points will go to the home team.
