Trujillanos vs Sao Paulo Betting Tips and Predictions

Copa Libertadores debutants Trujillanos of Venezuela will not be enjoying their premier campaign in the competition with two heavy defeats coming in their first two fixtures. Their first game, at home was a 4-0 defeat to the Argentinian River Plate, a rude awakening to international football. Things only improved slightly when they headed to Bolivia to lose 2-1 to The Strongest. James Cabezas becoming the first Trujillanos player to score in the competition.

They will go into this game against Sao Paulo needing a win if they want to even contemplate getting out of the group stage, but a draw would still be a good result for a squad worth 40 times less than the Brazilian team.

Sao Paulo have had an equally disappointing Libertadores campaign, still searching for a win, after a surprise 1-0 home loss to The Strongest in the opening game, before drawing with River Plate 1-1 away from home. Ganso has been in fine form in the league and opened his and his teams Copa Libertadores goal scoring account in the game against River and will be hoping to add to his tally against this much smaller team.

Points are both desperately required by both teams if they are serious about keeping their Copa Libertadores dreams alive, however Sao Paulo’s quality and squad depth should see them take the 3 points here. Get Sao Paulo to win at 7/10 with bet365.
