A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Caracas fans are optimistic that the difference between 2nd and Gran Valencia's 18th place in the table will show on the pitch.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Caracas form and stats
Caracas, who have the most scored goals (12) in Primera Division, have collected seven points from their first three Primera Division games here at Estadio Olímpico de la UCV, a promising start.

The manager N. Sanvicente Bethelmy will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Monagas in only three days.
