The Best Aguilas vs Atletico Nacional Prediction and Picks

After playing each other on Friday morning, Aguilas and Atletico Nacional are set to go head-to-head once again on Monday. Out for revenge after losing 1-0, Aguilas will be more fired up than ever making this one a must-watch encounter. Ahead of the game, here are some free tips and predictions to consider.

Aguilas to Win

After finishing top of the league after the 20 regular-season matches, Aguilas will be gutted with how the first three matches of the off-season have gone. After being defeated by Petrolera in an eight-goal thriller, Aguilas have since only managed to pick up one point since. They trail Atletico and Petrolera by four points meaning they must win this game if they are to have any chance of reaching the playoff final. Given what’s at stake, we expect them to get the job done in front of their home fans.

Under 2.5 Goals

Aside from the 5-3 defeat to Petrolera, Aguilas haven’t been in too many open games of late. There has only been one goal scored in their last two matches while you have to go back five games for the last time more than two goals were scored in a match involving Atletico Nacional. We envisage the away team to go into this one looking for a point and that should result in a cagey affair. It will be a surprise if more than two goals are scored.

Under 0.5 First-Half Goals

Aguilas are a team that typically performs better after half time which makes this bet particularly appealing. In three of their last six games, the scoreline has been 0-0 after the opening 45 minutes while the same can be said for two of Atletico Nacional’s last four matches. We’re expecting a cautious approach from both teams in the first half with Aguilas opening up more in the second.

Atletico Nacional vs Aguilas: A must-win game for the home side

Aguilas

After they came top of the Primera A table, Aguilas fans were dreaming of their first-ever league title. Unfortunately, things haven’t gone to plan in the post-season so far and they will now need a minor miracle if they are to reach the playoff final. Manager, Lucas Gonzalez, will be hoping that Marco Perez can bounce back into life after two poor performances in a row. The Colombian finished as the regular season’s top scorer and they need his goals now more than ever.

Atletico Nacional

Veteran midfielder, Dorlan Pabon, popped up with the all-important goal on Friday when the sides met which has catapulted Atletico to the top of the Group A standings. As they are playing before Petrolera on Monday, whom they share top spot with, Paulo Autuori will know just how huge another win here would be for his side. The reigning champions are hitting top form just at the right time and a League and Copa Libertadores double is still very much on the cards.
