APWin Prediction

Under 2.5 Goals

APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

From what they have shown thus far this season, Deportivo Cuenca and Emelec both tend to play quite defensive styles and like to keep things tight in midfield.

As a result, we predict the total going under 2.5 goals to be the most attractive betting option for this upcoming match.

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

Emelec 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 Deportivo Cuenca a bit of a scare in the early going.

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