Cucuta Prediction – Can Cucuta break into top 8?

9th placed Cucuta will have plenty of incentive to go for all three points in Sunday night’s clash with bottom half outfit, Patriotas, as the hosts sit on the fringes of the Final Series placings but level on points with Deportes Tolima and Santa Fe who sit in 7th and 8th places respectively.

Cucuta have produced a mixed bag of results in recent weeks as they’ve collected wins against Atletico Nacional and Millonarios as well as recent defeats to Deportivo Cali, Deportivo Pasto and Independiente Medellin.

But switch to results on home turf at their Estadio General Santander and you’ll find that Cucuta have been a hard team to beat on home soil as they’ve suffered just 1 defeat out of their last 9 matches overall, while this season they hold a solid home record of 4-3-1 12/9 to date this season.

The hosts have registered wins against Santa Fe, La Equidad, Atletico Bucaramanga and Millonarios while they’re unbeaten in their last 2 meetings at home against Sunday night’s opponents, Patriotas.

Patriotas Prediction – Can Patriotas keep slim hopes alive?

Visitors Patriotas occupy six league places below their Sunday night’s hosts, Cucuta, in 15th place and find themselves 6 points adrift of the top 8 pack prior to their trip to face a stubborn Cucuta outfit at their Estadio General Santander.

With just 4 matches remaining of the Colombian top flight regular season, Patriotas’ situation hasn’t been helped by a recent sequence of 4 matches without a win as the visitors have suffered defeats to Deportivo Cali and Atletico Nacional along with draws against Union Magdalena and Millonarios.

Indeed, Patriotas have captured just 1 win out of their last 10 matches overall in the Liga Aguila which was a narrow 1-0 home win over fourth from bottom club, Atletico Huila, and it’s been Patriotas’s results at home that have prevented them from dropping down to the basement of the division.

All of their 4 wins this season have been recorded at their Estadio de La Independencia, while away from home, the visitors possess a poor away record of 0-5-3 5/11 so far this season, and have managed to register just 1 away win out of their last 14 matches on their travels.

Betting Tips Verdict

Cucuta with a solid home record under their belts should take the points here.
