The Best Betting Tips and Libertad vs Athletico Paranaense Prediction
Paranaense or Draw
The Brazilian side have made the most of their last four meetings with Libertad. The previous year Athletico Paranense dispatched the Paraguayan team in the round of 16. Although both teams have had inconsistent results, we predict that it will be the visitors who will get the win or at least a draw.
Both Teams to Score – No
The home team has three consecutive games conceding at least one goal. Now, they will face an opponent that is usually solid in defence. In addition, the poor Brazilian has managed few goals both in the home league and in the away league. So it would not be unusual to see some of the Libertad vs Athletico Paranaense lin ups fail to score at least 1 goal.
Under 2.5 Goals
The previous year the two teams met four times. Only once there were more than 2.5 goals, in the other three matches there were very few goals. The scoring average of both teams is just one goal per game. Our Libertad vs Athletico Paranaense prediction is that we will see few goals in this matchup.
Quick Analysis of Libertad vs Athletico Paranaense
Libertad
The Paraguayan team made their debut in the continental tournament with a win, however in the second matchday they were unable to win at home against Alianza Lima. In the first half, Libertad had 63% of the ball, shot 3 times on target, and prevented their opponents from shooting at all.
In the second half, the Paraguayan team again kept the ball but this time Alianza Lima created dangerous plays, and in one of them they opened the scoring and then increased the lead. Daniel Garnero’s team could barely reduce the deficit with a stoppage-time goal.
Paranaense
The Brazilian team remains unbeaten and leader of group g in the Copa Libertadores after a draw and a win in the first two rounds. In the previous match, Athletico Paranaense played a poor game at home to Atletico Mineiro.
Although this seemed like just another Brasileirao match, both teams played in a fast-paced manner as there was a lot at stake. The team coached by Paulo Turra had a great first half in which they scored two goals. From there on they worked to maintain the lead, however, they conceded a goal in the second half. Still Athletico Paranaense got the three points.
