In the last round, the Warriors lost 0-2 to Estudiantes Merida and ended up on the last line in the table.

Tip and bets

1.99IT "Defensor Sporting" has more than two goals

Defensor Sporting lost 0-2 in the first match and now has no other option but to go forward with great force immediately. The Violets are traditionally strong and productive on their own field, Navarro's players look very solid in the championship and clearly have plans to win back and advance to the next round. Monagas looks very weak at the start of the season, the warriors have not won a single victory in the Venezuelan championship yet and are missing a lot – it makes sense to count on goals scored from the hosts.

We believe that the guests will be missed. The forecast is that Defensor Sporting's individual total is more than two goals. This bet is offered with odds of 1.99

2.05handicap (-1.5) for Defensor Sporting

Betting on the outcome

Defensor Sporting stumbled in the first match and lost 0:2, but such a defeat is certainly not a verdict. At home, the Violets are able to show a completely different football and not only win back, but also resolve the issue of reaching the next round in regular time. Monagas looks very weak at the start of the season, and the victory over the violets is the only bright spot for the warriors, in this state, the guests should hardly count on success in Montevideo.

The bet is the Asian handicap (-1.5) on Defensor Sporting. This bet is offered for 2.05

Betting on corners

Defensor Sporting is the favorite and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the hosts should win confidently from the corners.

The bet is the Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Defensor Sporting. This bet is offered for 1.75
