Colon to Win

The first game between Olimpia and Colon ended in a scoreless draw, but we expect to see much more action in their second game in the group, especially with both teams still in position to get to the next stage.

Colon has two points more than Olimpia and they are tied with Cerro Porteno at the top, so a win in this game would secure them a place in the next phase of Copa Libertadores and we can see that happening.

Colon vs Olimpia to Draw at Half Time

Although we expect Colon to win this game, they won’t have an easy job. After all, Colon is not in such a great form overall since they failed to get into the Copa de la Liga Professional playoffs, while Olimpia is in good form in their domestic championship.

With that in mind, we can see this game being tied at half time, especially since the first duel between Colon and Olimpia was also tied at half time, with teams failing to score any goals.

Over 2.5 Total Goals

As we already said, we did not see any goals in the first game between Colon and Olimpia in group stages, but we can still see this game going over 2.5 total goals.

After all, both teams are averaging around 2.50 goals per game in their domestic championships, and Colon has been especially efficient lately, with three of their last four games in all competitions going over 2.5 total goals.

Colon vs Olimpia preview: A crucial game for both teams

Colon

After failing to secure  a spot in Copa de la Liga Profesional playoffs as defending champions, Colon can now focus solely on their performances in Copa Libertadores. The team is currently second in their group with seven points, same as Cerro Porteno who is first. However, the other two teams in the group are still in the race for next stage, so Colon still has to add some points in the remaining games.

Olimpia

With five points from the first four rounds of Copa Libertadores, Olimpia is third in their group. However, they are just two points behind the top two teams and they have a chance to reach the next stage. Meanwhile, Olimpia is third in their domestic championship, but they have won five of their last six games in the league, so they are clearly in good form.
