Huracan: form and statistics

Huracan have been going through a mixed form this season in both domestic and continental competitions. They have a defence that has kept ten clean sheets so far, but their recent 2-0 away defeat to Lanus has shown some vulnerabilities. Huracan are without a doubt the better team and in this match, they will focus on tactical discipline, where the defence will be compact and organised, trying to minimise mistakes and block key attacks from the hosts in order to return to Argentina with a positive result, and then at home in front of their fans to attack for a place in the quarter-finals of the Copa Sudamericana.

Once Caldas vs Huracan match prediction 13 August 2025

I expect this to be a tough match, but the hosts have enough potential and strength to pull off a win, while Huracan can respond with solid defense, quick counterattacks, and support from their quality key players. This match is the most important match of the season for both teams in the Copa Sudamericana round of 16 and could prove to be a tough and uncertain match. Huracan have better form and experience in this kind of match, but the home field, height, and hot atmosphere are on the side of Once Caldas. Expect a low number of goals (under 2.5), with a possibility of a draw.

Our match prediction is first half - draw for a coefficient of 1.78 in the 1xBet bookmaker.
