Match for the qualification to the group stage of the Copa Libertadores between the Uruguayan Danubio and the Brazilian Ateletico Mineiro.
There is no doubt that for Danubio things are very complicated. In the international cups he has not stood out for a long time (I think after that time where he reached the semifinals of the Libertadores in 1988). Lately he has been participating in the South American Cup, and of all the participations he never happened of the first phase.
Now he is about to classify this Copa Libertadores in the group stage, but he has it very complicated, mainly because he played a Brazilian opponent and very hard.
For me it is a centralized match in the defenses.
The Atletico mineiro team will come to defend themselves. It is not one of those teams that are dedicated to being offensive, but on the contrary, they defend and control the minimum advantage, always playing “at the limit” of the draw.
Now, knowing that it is a key of 2 games, which is defined at home (where they are hyperfavorites) and having a weak rival, more that more will come out to take care of themselves and look for some golsito to later endure, although the draw is not bad business.
Danubio is not one of the teams that stand out for the offensive game, so I think he does not have many chances to score either.
As for the latest background …
Danubio, of the last 6 official games, all were under 2.5 goals, but also had 3 draws without goals and 1 game with just 1 goal. In other words, of the last 6 in 4 they did not mark both.
Atletico Mineiro, stands out because of the last 6 games, in 5 they did not score both.
PREDICTION: Under 2,5 goals @ 1.57
