The away team played their last official match on as part of the Serie A tournament (home team - Emelec, away - SD Aucas). The match concluded with a scoreline of 0:2.

Emelec's players are similar in style to their opponents. Their scoring record looks even more dire: 19 goals in 23 matches. There is no reason to expect any surprisingly good attacking decisions away from home. Moreover, even in a recent home match Emelec came up with almost nothing (a 0:2 defeat to Aucas). The visitors are well aware of their position. Their priority will be to keep their goal intact. Given the overall context, such an outcome looks quite achievable.

⭐ Editor's Pick
It is hard to pick a favourite in this one. Both teams are struggling. They sit in the lower part of the table. And there are no real grounds to expect either side to perform with confidence in attack. The squad makeup does not suggest any notable creativity or a high level of individual quality. A lot is geared towards breaking up play. Defensive work should come to the fore right now. Our editors are expecting a low-scoring outcome. A bet on total under 2 goals looks appropriate here.
