Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on Millonarios?
Millonarios has been one of the strongest teams in Colombia in recent times, which is confirmed by the title they won in the middle of the year, precisely against the same rival they will face at home this weekend.
The Embajador team comes from a 0-0 draw in their visit to Deportivo Cali, so they are in seventh place with nine points. It has not been the expected start for the defender of the throne, with two wins, three draws and two defeats so far, with only three goals scored.
Leonardo Castro has scored one goal so far, which explains the low offensive production of the Bogota team, which hopes that the return of winger Daniel Ruiz will provide more solutions when it comes to finding the opponent’s net.
Alberto Gamero could count on defender Juan Pablo Vargas, who was out with a back problem. Omar Bertel and David Mackalister Silva, who have overcome their injuries, will be available. Those who will not be able to play are midfielders Stiven Vega and Juan Carlos Pereira, and winger Luis Paredes.
Why Bet on Atlético Nacional?
Atlético Nacional started the semester with the unexpected departure of Paulo Autuori and the decision to keep his assistant, William Amaral, who has been key in the local league so far.
In the last match, the Verdolaga overcame Deportivo Pasto 2-1 at home, so they are first with 14 points, the product of four wins and two draws. That is to say, so far they are undefeated at the local level; because in the Copa Libertadores, they were beaten 3-0 by Racing de Avellaneda and were eliminated in the round of 16.
The team coached by Amaral has nine goals scored and four conceded, being the third-best backline in Colombian soccer.
Dorlan Pabón is the big news for the Paisa team, after overcoming an injury that left him out for more than a month. However, Cristian Castro, Andrés Salazar, Sergio Mosquera, and Uruguayan Maximiliano Cantera are injured.
Final Betting Analysis: Millonarios vs. Atlético Nacional
Atlético Nacional has been a great visitor so far this semester, with five points in three games. However, El Campín is a complicated place, and Alberto Gamero usually gets positive results against the Antioquians.
The numbers at MyBookie.ag have Millonarios as the favorite, as the Moneyline for them shows +110, meanwhile, Atlético Nacional has +300 and the draw is at +220.
The last time they played in the capital these two teams drew 1-1, however, the Embajador ended up as champions of the Liga Betplay Dimayor on penalties 3-2. In the last five meetings at El Campín, there have been two draws, two wins for the Verdolaga and one for the local team. In this order of ideas, we believe that a draw is the most plausible outcome.
Go for the Moneyline draw. If you bet $100 at +220, you could gain $220 for a total payout of $320.
