Royal Pari FC vs CSD Macara Predictions

Tuesday’s Copa Sudamericana second round, first leg action sees Bolivians Royal Pari going up against Ecuadorians Macara. An exciting game is expected to be in order, with plenty of chances at both ends.

After winning their first ever continental tie with Venezuelans Monagas on penalties, Royal Pari come into the second round looking to make further history by advancing another round. Los Inmobiliarios are a tiny club both domestically and on the continent, so there’s no real expectation on them and they are just trying to go as far as they can in the competition.

Now up against Ecuadorians Macara, Royal Pari are undoubtedly underdogs over the two legs but will at least be hopeful of securing some kind of result in this first leg. Indeed, having won their last two home games, the hosts come into this one relatively confident and will be looking to establish an advantage to take with them to the second leg.

Meanwhile, visitors Macara are hardly a continental powerhouse themselves but have a bit more experience than Royal Pari, having contested the Copa Libertadores last season. The Ecuadorians brushed aside Bolivians Guabira 5-1 on aggregate in the last round and will surely fancy their chances of advancing from this tie as well.

That’s because they are in very good shape and have been playing in an impressive manner in 2019. They currently stand 3rd in the Ecuadorian top flight and have lost just 1 of their last 18 games, a feat that is all the more impressive considering they’ve also won 12 of said clashes..

Ultimately, this should be a very entertaining watch as two teams that will play in an attacking manner go blow for blow. Royal Pari simply have to play on the front foot in search of victory, with there being little chance of them getting a result in the away leg, whereas it’s not in Macara’s nature to sit back and they’ll be looking to stamp their authority on the tie.

All things considered, backing both teams to score looks an excellent way to play as far as the betting is concerned and is something we’re more than happy to do with maximum confidence. Both nets have been hit in 10 of Royal Pari’s last 11 home games, as well as in 5 of Macara’s last 6 matches overall and both streaks could well continue, with a 1-1 draw seeming on the cards.
