👉 Our prediction is: Santos to win

Deportivo Cuenca vs Santos is a tough match to call, with both teams looking so comparable in our evaluations. But despite the disadvantage of being the away side, we are picking Santos to win on the 1X2 market.

We find Santos's odds to win outright to be quite good value as the away side. Their away numbers suggest they have the ability to pull off a surprise at Estadio Alejandro Serrano Aguilar Banco del Austro (El Ejido).

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

Santos will head in to face Deportivo Cuenca with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Santos to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Deportivo Cuenca, at least until half-time.
