Bitesize Prediction: Cuniburo vs Gualaceo – 31/07/24

Competition: Ecuadorian Serie B

Market: Cuniburo win

Odds: 12/11 @ 1xBet

Looking to extend their buffer at the top of the Ecuadorian Serie B table, Cuniburo will welcome Gualaceo to the Olympic Atahualpa on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, making a real statement last weekend and extending on their Copa Ecuador adventure thanks to a 3-1 romp against Macara, Cuniburo are riding a major wave of momentum. Appearing to breeze their way to a top-flight return this season and leading the chase at the top of the table, the Goblins will simply be looking lay down another marker here. Suffering just a single defeat from any of their previous 16 appearances across all competitions – a run that stems all the way back to April 26th – Juan Grabowski’s men have also continued to shine with their performances on home soil. Including an action-packed 6-2 victory against Manta on July 17th, Wednesday’s hosts have won all of their last five consecutive showdowns at the Olympic Atahualpa by an aggregate score of 14-4. Likewise, Cuniburo have not suffered a single defeat in front of their own supporters since the start of April.

As for the visitors, putting in what was a toothless performance last week as they eventually had to settle for a 0-0 stalemate at home against Guayaquil City, Gualaceo have come crashing back down to earth since they flurry last month. Opening July with a 1-0 loss against San Antonio, Fabian Frias’ men have collected just a single victory from any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Crashing out of the Copa Ecuador on June 30th following a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Olmedo, El Guala have also shown some extended issues in the final third. In fact, Wednesday’s guests have recorded just a single strike over the past month. Facing what will certainly be a real challenge here, Gualaceo will also be worried by a downbeat record against the Serie B leaders. Slumping to a 1-0 defeat when they travelled to the Olympic Atahualpa back on May 14th, we are expecting a similar outcome in midweek.
