As part of the first match of the 1/4 finals of the Copa Libertadores, the players of Velez and Talleres will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation? Our sports portal evaluates the opponents' chances of success.
"Velez Sarsfield"
The Sarsfield players were able to pass the River Plate at the last stage, outplaying the opponent by the sum of two meetings with a score of 1:0. But in the national championship, the team is not doing well, and this is evidenced by the current 25th place of the team in the standings. Interestingly, Veles has only 9 tournament points. In the last four meetings, the hosts have played exclusively in a draw. Such performances are unlikely to please football fans.
"Talleres Cordoba"
It is hardly possible to praise the "Talleres" for this season. Interestingly, this team is a neighbor of today's opponent in the standings of the championship of Argentina. To be precise, "Cordoba" is located on the 26th line in the standings, having 9 points in its asset. At the last stage of the Copa Libertadores, Caixilla's team was able to defeat Colon Santa Fe by the sum of two meetings with a result of 3:1. It is likely that the guests will be able to show their best in this game.
Statistics and figures:
- "Veles" - the favorite of the meeting;
- The hosts have a 4-match draw;
- In the last 5 games, Veles scored at least one goal in each of the matches;
