Mirassol FC and Always Ready face crucial Copa Libertadores Group G match-up
Mirassol FC lead the Copa Libertadores Group G table with 9 points from 4 games, while Always Ready are bottom with 3 points from the same 4 games. The Group G top spot is a prize up for grabs, but these two teams could also both miss out depending on the result of this all-important head-to-head tie. This Always Ready vs Mirassol FC prediction suggests Group G has been an exciting one so far, and it looks set to finish that way with Mirassol FC and Always Ready facing off at two contrasting styles.
Mirassol are in excellent form in all competitions heading into this game and are likely to have the advantage over an Always Ready side who will need to maintain their home form. According to our Always Ready vs Mirassol FC prediction, Mirassol’s high-tempo, wing-based attack is very attack-minded, and Rafael Guanaes’ side are structured and have many options to keep up the pace, especially at home. They have won 4 of their last 5 in all competitions, with their other match finishing in a 1-1 home draw in Serie A, and a 2-1 win at home in the Copa do Brasil. Alesson Batista has scored 1 goal in 3 games in Copa Libertadores Group G to lead Mirassol’s attack and has been their focal point in recent games.
Always Ready have been in mixed form in all competitions, although they have picked up 2 wins and 1 loss in their last 3 at home. They’ve found a good rhythm under Julio Cesar Baldivieso, who has made some tactical tweaks to get the team running better as a unit. Enrique Triverio has been their top scorer in Copa Libertadores Group G with 1 goal in 4 appearances, and Always Ready will need his presence and his goals in the final third. The Bolivians have an altitude advantage, and they have been getting the ball forward quickly to unsettle their opponents when they have had success. In this Always Ready vs Mirassol FC preview, both teams seem capable of causing each other problems in a closely contested group.
Mirassol won the reverse fixture 2-0 at home two weeks ago, a result which put them top of Group G. Always Ready will have had a chance to work on some of the problems which they had during that game, and they have looked much better in the home games which they have had since. The Always Ready vs Mirassol FC betting tips highlight that we are expecting a cagey game as both sides will look to control the rhythm of the game and not give anything away. Always Ready can edge it at home, but they will have to keep it tight at the back to do so.
There are odds of 1.57 for an Always Ready win, 2.03 for under 2.5 goals and 1.87 for both teams not to score, but we’re going for an Always Ready vs Mirassol FC prediction of a home win with under 2.5 goals in the game.
