Independiente Medellin vs Atlético Tucumán Predictions

  • Independiente Medellin have won 8 of their last 9 home games.
  • During said streak, they’ve scored an average of 2.55 goals a game.
  • Atletico Tucuman have lost their last 2 away games via 2-0 margins.
  • Atletico Tucuman have lost 7 of their last 9 Copa Libertadores away games.

Independiente Medellin looking to open up advantage

With reaching the group phase of the Libertadores a minimum expectation for Colombians Independiente Medellin, motivation is high coming into Wednesday’s game. The side saw off Venezuelans Tachira 4-2 on aggregate in the last round of action and will be hoping for smooth sailing once again in this tie.

With Tucuman a tough place to visit and far from strong on the road themselves, DIM are under pressure to get a result in this home leg. Nonetheless, that shouldn’t be a problem for them, given they’ve won 8 of their last 9 home matches; impressively plunging home an average of 2.55 goals a game in the process.

Atletico looking to stay in the tie

Meanwhile, Argentines Atletico Tucuman were a spot-kick away from crashing out of the Libertadores against Bolivians The Strongest last week but managed to scrape through. El Decano lost the away leg of said clash 2-0 but turned things around on home soil; something they’ll likely have to do if they are to progress from this tie.

Indeed, Atletico have a very poor away record in the competition and aren’t strong travellers away from their passionate fans. All in all, they’ve lost 7 of their last 9 trips in the Libertadores and with two 2-0 defeats from their last couple of away games behind them, confidence won’t be high prior to arrival on Colombian soil.

A home win is expected

Ultimately, this is a match Independiente Medellin know they need to win and they will be looking to play on the front foot from the off. The hosts need to try and open up as big a margin of victory as possible and given how strong they are on home soil, their prospects as regards securing victory certainly look high.

All things considered, backing Independiente Medellin to clear the Over 1.5 Team Total Goals line looks the best way to play and is something we’re more than happy to do. They score goals at a highly impressive rate as hosts with Atletico weak travellers, a 2-0 margin of home victory could well be on the cards.
