Aucas Nacional betting prediction

The team plays its first match in this edition of the CONMEBOL Libertadores with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 30 goals scored and 19 conceded. In their last match, for the Division Profesional, they got a home loss against Guaraní by (1‑4). In the last 10 away matches Nacional has won 1, tied 6 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 9 of their 24 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Nacional faced challenges in their most recent matches, with results that highlight the need for adjustments both offensively and defensively. The team had a bad result against Guarani, suffering a defeat by (1-4), in addition to drawing with Olimpia Asuncion by (2-2) and with General Caballero JLM by (2-2). These results indicate a team that struggles to maintain consistency, especially in matches against strong opponents. Nacional demonstrates that it has an attack capable of scoring goals, but its defense has been vulnerable, an aspect that will need to be strengthened to face the pressure of the Copa Libertadores.

Confirmed Lineup: Sebastian Vargas, Antony Silva, Claudio Núñez Aquino, Brian Blasi, Sergio Ojeda, Juan Fernando Alfaro, Edgardo Orzuza, Blas Caceres, Orlando Gaona Lugo, Ignacio Bailone, Gustavo Caballero.
