São Paulo form and stats
Last season their Copa Libertadores adventure ended in the 2nd round.2-2-0 (win-draw-lost) are the Paulista A1 numbers at home for São Paulo so far this season.
São Paulo lost their last game at Botafogo SP after a 0-1 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Deportivo Binacional (1-2).
The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for São Paulo home games with this odds we find nine games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in four wins, three draws and two defeats. Looking at the victories, two matches were won by at least two goals.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Santos are coming to town in three days.
The São Paulo fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 5 in 4 matches. São Paulo have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 2 goals.
LDU Quito form and stats
LDU Quito's mission in Copa Libertadores last season failed in the quarter-finals against Boca Juniors.Momentum is building for LDU Quito in their away games, having won their two previous outings.
LDU Quito are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the Liga Pro against Barcelona. A home win before that, celebrating 3-0 vs River Plate.
The end of the last match, against Barcelona, was very satisfying as F. Guerra scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where LDU Quito played away with similar odds. This revealed one game. The visitors overcame the odds to win zero times, one were draw and the home team won as expected zero times.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Liga Pro trip to Orense.
