Betting on Club Olimpia
Olimpia’s tournament has been an absolute letdown, and its fans find it unacceptable to see this team so far behind the leader, Libertad. In the previous match, it lost 1-0 to Guairena, and now it has to face Cerro Porteno before thinking about General Caballero.
At the moment, it seems like the only way to salvage its season is by advancing to the next round of the Copa Libertadores. It’s worth noting that the home team currently holds the second place in its group, with five points, two less than the leader, Atletico Nacional.
Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Juan Espínola; Víctor Salazar, Junior Barreto, Mateo Gamarra, Facundo Zabala; Marcos Gómez, Hugo Quintana, Alejandro Silva, Fernando Cardozo, Hugo Fernández; Facundo Bruera.
Betting on Club General Caballero
General Caballero has been alternating wins and losses in the past five games, but it’ll come into this challenge against Olimpia with its confidence at an all-time high after defeating Guairena 3-0 at home.
General Caballero’s season has been quite inconsistent, however, these recent victories have allowed the team to climb out of the bottom of the ranking and breathe a little easier. However, now, it faces a tough match that looks quite challenging.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Gustavo Arévalos; Juan Ignacio Saborido, Gustavo Navarro, Manuel Romero, Wildo Alonso; Hernán Pérez, Juan Franco, Guillermo Hauche, Franco Costa; Cristhian Báez, Tomás Lezcano.
JefeBet Prediction
On March 12th, the two teams faced each other and Olimpia won 2-1 as the visiting team. Therefore, at JefeBet, we believe that despite the home team’s inconsistency, it will still manage to secure the three points in this match.
Prediction: Olimpia Moneyline (OLI 2-0 GNC)
