Defensa y Justicia Emelec betting prediction

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 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 12 conceded. In their last match, for the Liga Pro, they got an away tie against Libertad by (0‑0). In the last 4 CONMEBOL Sudamericana away matches Emelec has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 11 of their 22 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Emelec comes for this match knowing that their situation is delicate, after all they lost at home in the first leg. To pass the stage directly, they will have to win by two or more goals difference, which is quite complicated, even more so playing in Argentina. In this way, they will have to put together a strategy in which they are solid in the defense and that does not waste offensive opportunities. The only chance to eliminate Defensa y Justicia is to have a balance in the field and a great performance.
