It's no vacation for neither LDU Portoviejo nor Guayaquil City as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Guayaquil City have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 6-11-25 (win-draw-loss) from 42 matches.
