APWin Prediction

Alajuelense Win

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

Defensive solidity should prove to be a major factor in this matchup. Both teams' backlines are rock solid, so scoring chances will be hard to come by.

As such, there is decent value to be had in betting 'no' on the Both Teams to Score market.

👉 Our prediction is: Herediano to win the 1st half

Herediano is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.

It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Alajuelense a bit of a scare in the early going.

That is why we recommend taking Herediano to win the first half.
