Independiente del Valle – the shape of the team and its analysis: the club looks much more solid at the inner arena
“The Stripes” can repeat their main achievement in the Ecuadorian Serie A – the only championship so far that was won in 2021. Speaking about the international competition, they will most likely move to the Copa Sudamericana, which they have managed to win twice in 5 previous years. It is reasonable to mention that 4 points, which were taken in the first 2 rounds (a draw in Uruguay and a home victory over San Lorenzo), remain the only achievements there – the rest of the games were lost.
Liverpool Montevideo – the shape of the team and its analysis: it is losing ground after the peak
“The Black and Blues” achieved maximum results in past years, first finishing in 2nd place and winning their debut championship in Uruguay in 2023. As for the recently concluded Apertura, the titleholder scored exactly half as many points as the leader, Peñarol (18 versus 38). Speaking about the Copa Libertadores, something serious worked only at the home arena, where the team, after a draw with the Ecuadorians, beat the guests from Argentina. However, the flagship of the quartet, Palmeiras, achieved a humiliating 5-0 result. Everything was decided in the 5th round, where, having equalized the score twice, the club eventually lost to San Lorenzo – 2-3.

It makes sense for both rivals to play to win – theoretically there is a chance, given that the Brazilians will win in the parallel match, and even come out in 2nd place. Still, there is a need to work on the goal difference, so we bet on the hosts to win with “a -1.5 goal handicap” (odd: 1.9).
