The unbeaten run of Aucas across different competitions came to an end with the defeat against Racing Club (3-2). Erick Castillo and Luis Canga scored goals in the 48th and 56th minute.

Cumbaya - Coming off a Win Over Gualaceo SC (WLWLW)

Going in the matchup, Cumbaya is coming off a win against Gualaceo SC (1-0), in which Agustin Maziero scored the only goal of the match. However, the inconsistent run continues, as Cumbaya has won three and lost two fixtures from the last five played in the Ecuadorian league. With Teodoro Paredes in the lineup, Cumbaya will be hoping for some individual performances as well. Talking about goal scoring, Cumbaya has scored and conceded 5 goals. Moreover, the matches won by Cumbaya resulted in only one side scoring. However, those wins came in home outings, and the upcoming matchup is an away outing for Cumbaya.
