Estudiantes vs Santos Soccer Prediction for Today
On Thursday for the third round of Group F of the Copa Libertadores, Estudiantes hosts the Santos team at 9:30 p.m. (from Brasilia)
At the Centennial Stadium, in Quilmes (Argentina).
After two rounds the team is leading the F group, in the debut playing in Uruguay tied scoreless with the National, then in the second round playing at home beat Real Garcilaso by 3 to 0, with that adds four points.
Last weekend the team played for the Argentine Championship, playing away from home tied with Velez Sarsfield in 3 to 3, in the competition the team is the 10th placed with 32 points.
For this confrontation, coach Gustavo Matosas has the doubt between Iván Gómez or Gastón Giménez.
Probable Estudiantes: Andújar, Sánchez, Campi, Schunki and Dubarbier; Cascini, Zuqui and Iván Gómez (Gastón Giménez); Lucas Rodríguez; Otero and Pavone. Technical: Gustavo Matosas.
SANTOS: The Brazilian team is third in the group, the team debut playing in Peru against Real Garcilaso and lost by 2 to 0, then playing at home beat the Nacional of Uruguay by 3 to 1.
The group is very balanced, so the team needs at least one point, not to distance themselves from the top two.
Having been eliminated in the semifinals of the Paulista Championship, the Santos team had a little more time to train. For this confrontation, coach Jair Ventura will not be able to count on striker Gabigol.
Probable SANTOS: Vanderlei; Daniel Guedes, Lucas Veríssimo, David Braz (Luiz Felipe or Gustavo Henrique) and Dodo; Alison; Arthur Gomes, Renato, Jean Mota and Rodrygo; Eduardo Sasha. Technical: Jair Ventura.
Prediction Estudiantes vs Santos:
The game will be in Quilmes, with that the preção will be greater of the fans of the Estudiantes, because it is a more timid stadium. The Argentine team is looking for another victory to stay in the lead and open the lead.
The Santos team plays for a positive result, coming with a draw in the bag is already a great result, despite not having Gabigol, I believe it will make a well balanced game.
My suggestion is in the double possibility of Santos, Jair must arm the team tightly closed, and exploiting the counterattacks, with that I believe has a good chance of not losing, I also see value in this line.
Betting Predictions : Santos or a tie
Odds: 1.62
