Colon to Win

The home team has a losing streak of 3 consecutive league defeats, and 5 in their last 6 matches in all competitions.  The visitors have a record of 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 defeat in their last 5 matches.

In the recent h2h Velez has a slight advantage with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. We think Velez will arrive in better condition and take the 3 points.

Under 2.5 Goals

This matchup will feature two of the teams with the fewest goals scored in the tournament. Despite being at the bottom, they have not conceded as many goals as other teams. That is why we assume that the number of goals in this matchup will be low.

BTTS – No

Both clubs have 2 consecutive games without scoring. In addition, in Velez’s last 3 matches there have been clean sheets, so it would not be unusual for this match to be a repeat of this factor.

Bottom Of The Table Clash – Colon vs Velez Preview 

Colon to Win

A few days ago, El Sabalero took advantage of the result they had achieved in the first leg, where they drew 1-1 as visitors. It was the perfect opportunity to close out the series with a win in front of their home fans. However, the fragility of Colon’s defensive line was decisive for their opponents to have many scoring opportunities, and they scored twice, although it could have been even more.

After the elimination, Julio Falcioni’s team will focus on improving their performance in the local tournament. They are currently in 23rd position, with the same points as their next opponents.

Velez

El Fortin was able to give their fans a little bit of joy after their successful Copa Libertadores exploits, where they won the first leg at home and drew at the Monumental stadium against River Plate. In both games, coach Alexander Medina opted for a defensive formation to prevent El Millonario from having any clear goal-scoring chances.

The plan worked to perfection, although the difference in possession of the ball was superior to River, Velez always waited for an opportunity to counterattack. The interventions of goalkeeper Lucas Hoyos were also important to keep a clean sheet in both games.
