Our prediction is: Progreso win or draw
Progreso has been a thorn in the side of many teams of late, and even away from home, they are quite a dangerous opponent for anyone. So as they travel to face Central Español, our betting tip is Progreso win or draw on the Double Chance market, which means they can either win or draw for the bet to win.
It would honestly not be that big of a surprise if Progreso emerged victorious against Central Español given the quality they've shown, but claiming a point is a much more realistic goal.
Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match
We strongly suggest taking the total to go over 2.5 goals in this matchup between Central Español and Progreso.
With the high quality of attacking talent on display coupled with the questionable defence of both teams, this bet has a great chance of hitting.
