Alajuelense vs Guanacasteca tips and predictions

Alajuelense might not continue march against Guanacasteca

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Alajuelense has made them a terrible bet. Guanacasteca don't look likely to get the win but they can ask some questions. With goals being far from abundant, a scoreless deadlock is the pick but it's certainly not one to get carried away with.

Both sides can be confident of keeping things tidy at the back. Alajuelense have averaged 0.7 goals in their last 3 starts - and Guanacasteca are averaging 0.6 goals from their last 5 games.

The betting markets suggest that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the favouritism for Alajuelense. But with the odds-against price on BTTS No that seems the better option here.

Alajuelense have drawn 7 of their last 18 matches on their own soil added to the fact that Guanacasteca have drawn 7 of their last 17 away matches. It's not very exciting and it feels like a match to be circumspect about. A deadlock awaits after what looks set to be a tightly contested match-up.
