Betting on Union Magdalena
The samarios come into this match with many doubts, but with possibilities of getting into the top eight when this matchday ends. Claudio Rodríguez’s team has gone from worse to better and, although they draw a lot, they’ve managed to hold their own in the middle of the standings.
Their most recent match was against Once Caldas away from home, where they drew 1-1. Although they were the ones who struck first and took the lead, a defensive error cost them a penalty at the 76-minute mark, leaving a bitter taste of what could have been a great victory.
For this new match, it’s expected that the home team will attack and press high led by Ricardo Márquez, with Wilder Guisao and Alexander Mejía, the midfield control is guaranteed. For now, Unión has the hegemony, as they haven’t lost against Pereira (in this stadium) since 2017.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Ramiro Sánchez; Juan Angulo, Jermein Peña, Nicolás Gil, Brayan Correa; Wilder Guisao, Jean Carlos Colorado, Alexander Mejía, Gianfranco Baier, Joel Contreras; Ricardo Márquez.
Betting on Deportivo Pereira
The lobos haven’t had an easy time in this Apertura tournament. So far, the Riosucio squad is in 14th place, hoping to climb up the ranks with a win in this clash. However, they’ve only achieved one victory in the last five matchdays.
n the last matchday against Bucaramanga, Pereira drew 1-1 thanks to Kevin Ademola’s goal. Despite having 19 shots, the team’s lack of effectiveness was evident as they couldn’t clinch the three points at home. With this result, the aurirrojo has accumulated six winless games.
Possible lineup (3-5-2): Aldair Quintana; Edisson Restrepo, Geisson Perea, Carlos Ramírez; Yilmar Velásquez, Eber Moreno, Larry Angulo, Johan Bocanegra, Jimer Fory; Kevin Aladesanmi, Ángelo Rodríguez.
JefeBet Prediction
Although Unión Magdalena hasn’t been effective, their home is a fortress where they haven’t lost so far this year and where they have won three consecutive games. Pereira, with their squad still under construction, hasn’t been able to secure a win as visitors during this semester and doesn’t show clear signs of improvement compared to their previous performances.
For this clash, Unión Magdalena vs Pereira, at JefeBet, we believe that the home team will take the victory.
Prediction: Union Magdalena Moneyline (UNI 2-1 PER).
