Betting on Portuguesa Fútbol Club
Portuguesa heads into this match after a 1-0 loss to Carabobo in the previous game. However, it’s unlikely that the team is feeling too worried, as it had an impressive run of five consecutive wins prior to that defeat. During that streak, Portuguesa managed to keep a clean sheet three times, and scored two goals in four of those matches.
Their good form has led Jesús Ortiz’s team to fourth place in the standings, with a total of 21 points. Nevertheless, if it wants to get back to winning ways, Portuguesa must regain its effectiveness in front of the opponent’s goal. So, the team enters this matchday 15 of the Liga FUTVE as the team with the fewest goals among the top 12 in the standings, having scored only 13 goals.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Yhonatann Yustiz; Rodney Chirinos, Leandro Lugarzo, Azmahar Ariano, Anthony Graterol; Bernaldo Manzano, Ronaldo Lucena, Sergio Sulbarán; Rubén Rojas, José Rivas Ángel Osorio.
Betting on Metropolitanos Fútbol Club
Metropolitanos is on a mission to bounce back in this match after suffering a disappointing 2-3 loss at home to Hermanos Colmenares. The team blew the chance to take the lead early on in the game, and put an end to its two-game winning streak in the league.
As a result of this loss, Metropolitanos is starting this fixture in seventh place in the standings. However, with the top of the standings being so tight, except for the top spot, the team knows that if it wins here and some other results go its way, it could even finish the weekend in third place.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Giancarlo Schiavone; Jefre Vargas, Andrés Ferro, Steven Pabón, Néstor Cova; Edwin Laszo, Carlos Cermeño, Jhon Marchán; Robinson Flores, Freddy Vargas, Francisco Bareiro.
JefeBet Prediction
Even though Portuguesa has struggled in attack this season, it has improved recently. The team should be able to take advantage of Metropolitanos’ defensive weaknesses, as it has conceded 15 goals in 13 league matches.
However, the visitors are also very effective in attack, scoring in the last seven games in the Liga FUTVE. Therefore, with both teams in need of a win, we expect them to go for the opponent’s goal from the beginning and score at least once in the upcoming Portuguesa vs Metropolitanos exciting clash.
Prediction: Both teams score: Yes (BY 2-1 MET).
