Patriotas Preview
So far, the team from Boyacá has had a very difficult campaign this semester. They are currently in 18th place with 10 points and a goal difference of -6 resulting from 2 wins, 4 ties, and 8 losses. For this Patriotas vs Unión Magdalena, Patriotas will have the responsibility to redeem itself at home and try to get the three points.
In their most recent away game against Atlético Nacional, the “libertadores” lost 1-0. A defensive error, which resulted in a penalty kick, led to Jefferson Duque scoring and giving the victory to “los verdolagas”.
Possible Patriotas lineup: Geovanni Banguera; Diego Ruiz, Daniel Rodas, Luis Payares, Federico Arbeláez; Cristian Barrios, Luis Pérez, Leonardo Flores, Carlos de las Salas, José Ramírez Agudelo; Iván Rivas.
Unión Magdalena Preview
Moving on to Unión Magdalena, the team has had a fortunate season in this Liga BetPlay II. Led by David Ferreira, the team has achieved 7 wins, 3 draws, and has been defeated on 4 occasions. Despite not having won in the last two games, the Samario team has a good chance of advancing to the next round if its players connect with the DT’s ideas, as it is in fourth place in the tournament.
Last time out, at home against Independiente Santa Fe, Unión lost 2-0 due to two unfortunate mistakes at the back that led to defenders committing fouls inside the box. Wilson Morelo and Andrey Estupiñán scored from the penalty spot to give the lion the victory. The visiting team will have to reinforce their back lines if they want to get a point in this Patriotas vs Unión Magdalena match.
Possible Unión Magdalena lineup: Carlos Bejarano; Juan Pablo Vacca, José David Lloreda, Ronaldo Lora, Brayan Correa; Fabián Cantillo, Agostino Spina, Roberto Hinojosa, Jairo Palomino, Diego Chávez; Ricardo Márquez.
JefeBet Prediction
For this great match between Boyacenses and Samarios, we believe that the victory will be for Unión Magdalena. First, because of their good results throughout the tournament; and second, the points difference between the teams is very short and Ferreira’s team will not be confident enough.
Patriotas, on the other hand, has gone eight games without a win, which indicates a lack of effectiveness and a deficient style of play.
Prediction: Unión Magdalena wins 1-0.
