Bolívar will be looking for an improved result here following the 4-2 Copa Libertadores defeat in their last game at the hands of Cerro Porteno.

In that game, Bolívar had 68% possession and 10 shots on goal with 5 on target. The scorer for Bolívar was Ramiro Vaca (17', 89'). On the other side, Cerro Porteno got 19 attempts on goal with 6 on target. Jonatán Torres (45', 47', 61') and Jorge Morel (72') scored for Cerro Porteno.

It’s not been often in recent games that Bolívar haven’t conceded. The reality is that Bolívar have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 12 goals on the way. We will just have to see if that trend will be sustained into this next match.

🔮 Prediction

In this game, Bolívar can and should be able to create a high number of chances and successful shots on target.

At the same time, Sporting Cristal won’t find it easy to break down their defence although we do reckon that they could well end up getting enough chances to score, too.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a fairly comfortable 3-1 margin for Bolívar at full-time.
