Colo Colo today has the last opportunity to join the fight for a place in the playoffs, for this it is necessary to take all three points. The task for Indians, to put it mildly, is not the easiest, but it is not impossible either – Racing does not have a huge superiority in class, and Chileans also have plenty of experience at this level. Obviously, it will be very difficult for the hosts to win back to zero in such a situation, but at the same time, the academics at home will also strive only to win – an exchange of goals in such a duel is almost inevitable, such a bet was successful in the first round.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. The betting tip is that both will score. This bet is offered with a coefficient of 2.05
Betting on the outcome
Racing, from the point of view of the bookmakers, is the undisputed favorite of the match, which in general one can hardly disagree with, the academics have proved themselves much more successful in the group, they play at home, and Colo Colo is frankly failing in the Libertadores Cup. At the same time, it hardly makes sense to say that Racing is invulnerable, even at home, not so long ago the modest Atletico from Bucaramanga took all three points on Juan Domingo Peron. Colo Colo is quite capable of clinging to the points, at least the Chileans are unlikely to lose outright.
The bet is an Asian handicap (+1.5) on Colo Colo. This bet is offered for 1.69
Betting on corners
Racing will obviously play number one at home and will spend more time attacking than their opponent – there is no doubt about the confident victory of the hosts on corners.
The bet is an Asian handicap (-3) on corner Racing. This bet is offered for 1.85
