The right tips and betting tips for Nacional vs Sporting Cristal

to win nationally

The hosts have a small advantage when they play with the support of their home fans, in the preliminary round they showed that they are a different team when they play in their home stadium. We expect different line-ups between Nacional and Sporting Cristal in the two games.

On this occasion, the away team will look to keep a clean sheet to define the series at home, while the hosts will need to get a good result as the return leg becomes more difficult at 10,000ft.

Under 2.5 goals

The Paraguayan team has a good average of shots on goal per game, even exceeding the next opponent’s total shots. Considering that the away team will play defensively to stay clean, we might only see 1 or 2 goals.

BTTS – No

For our latest Nacional vs. Sporting Cristal prediction, we take into account that the Peru team has barely conceded 1 goal in three games and that their goal average hardly exceeds 1.00 per game.

The hosts have scored at least 1 goal in all their games this season. We believe it will be difficult for Paraguayans to overcome Sporting Cristal defence, but it will be more difficult for the away team.

Preview Nacional vs. Sporting Cristal: Final Challenge

National

The Paraguayan side did very well in their first test as they turned things around at home after losing 2-1 in the first leg to Sport Huancayo. This time the game is at home in Fury, so they need to pack a hard punch to finish their qualification in Peru.

The team coached by Pedro Sarabia has made great efforts to achieve its goals in the continental tournament and to score as many points as possible in the local tournament. So far, Nacional has 6 out of 9 points in the local tournament.

Sporting Crystal

The Peruvian team wants to take part in this year’s Copa Libertadores, but first they have to overcome their first big challenge against the Paraguayan team. This season, Sporting Cristal have played three games, winning two of them and drawing one.

Yoshimar Yotun and Leandro Sosa are the only players from the Peru team to have put the ball in the net. Goalkeeper Renato Solis was key to his team’s great start averaging 4.00 saves per game.
