2.49Tip and bets
Libertad is certainly not the favourite of the pair and the only chance to make a bid for the semi-final is a home win – Cruzeiro is practically flawless on its home field and it would be very reckless to expect to decide everything in Belo Horizonte. It is obvious that the hosts will take risks and they are capable of scoring their goal, but Cruzeiro has very high-level players ahead and the visitors are capable of responding.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.17
Bet on the outcome
Cruzeiro has a serious advantage over its opponent in terms of player selection and is the undisputed favorite of the pair. However, the Foxes' weak point is away matches, where failures happen regularly. Libertad will clearly strive to take advantage of this weakness of the opponent and the hosts definitely have a chance of success - they are capable of snatching a minimal victory in a tough fight.
Bet - Asian handicap (0) on "Libertad". This bet is offered for 2.05
Bet on corners
