Defensor Sporting Monagas betting prediction

This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 20 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 22 conceded. In their last match, for the Primera División, they got an away loss against Estudiantes Mérida by (2‑0). In the last 10 away matches Monagas has won 4, tied 1 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Monagas come into the match after a significant 2-0 win over Defensor in the first leg of this Copa Libertadores clash. However, in the Venezuelan league, they haven't had the same success and sit in 13th place, evidenced by fluctuating results, including a recent 0-2 defeat to Estudiantes de Mérida. The team has scored just four goals and conceded twelve in its last five matches, showing notable defensive vulnerabilities. The coach prioritizes a more attacking approach, which can be risky at times. Among their strengths are the ability to attack quickly and the potential to relieve pressure at critical moments, but defensive gaps and inconsistencies in maintaining the lead during games are areas for improvement.

Confirmed Lineup: Raúl Olivares Gálvez, Nicolás Henry, Emanuel Iñiguez, Oscar Piris, Roger Manríque Laorca, Andrés Romero Tocuyo, J. Caraballo Pinto, Fernando Andrés Basante Barcelo, Tomas Rodríguez Mena, Edanyilber Navas Alayón, Erickson Gallardo.
Coach: D. Blanco Aparcero.
