Alianza Petrolera vs Deportivo Pasto Prediction: Pasto Desperate for Securing Three Win Points

In the upcoming fixture of the Colombia Categoria A, Matchday 2, Alianza Petrolera will take on Deportivo Pasto at the Municipal Football Stadium Daniel Villa Zapata in Barrancabermeja. With teams involved in Copa Sudamericana and Copa Libertadores stages from Categoria A, we have a fixture from match day 2 to be played. Going in the contest, Deportivo Pasto stands 12th with 2 wins and 7 points, whereas Alianza Petrolera finds itself at the 19th spot with just a win and 5 points. The last time these two teams played against each other, the match ended in a draw.

Alianza Petrolera - Coming off a Draw Against La Equidad (DLLDW)

Going in the re-scheduled fixture, Alianza is coming off a draw against La Equidad (1-1) in which Steven Rodriguez secured a draw on penalty (1-1). With just a win from the last five matches played, Alianza is certainly struggling with winning comprehensively. After losing to Medellin (0-1), Alianza did make reinforcements in its rank, however, winning comprehensively still stays tough. Alianza has scored just a goal in the last three Categoria A matches. Hence, scoring against Pasto will also be difficult. Alianza Petrolera managed to have just 3 shots on target against Medellin as well, which depicts the poor gameplay for the men playing at home this time around. 

Deportivo Pasto - Lost to Atletico Nacional (LDWWL)

After winning two back-to-back matches, Pasto got a little off-track and lost to Nacional (0-1) in the last outing. Secondly, Pasto has scored 6 goals in the last 5 matches played, averaging about 1.2 goals per game. However, it has also conceded 6 goals, which can be minimized against Petrolera. With the likes of Edwar Lopez, the penalty specialist in the squad, Pasto will be looking positive to tackle every situation on the ground. However, they could not afford any red card suspensions or foul play against Petrolera. 

Expert Betting Tips

For tomorrow’s rescheduled fixture, Pasto will have odds in its favor for winning and securing three win points.
