Deportivo Tachira vs Portuguesa tips and predictions

Anticipated Primera Division clash will be tight

All outcomes are in the running here but the value has to be with the draw. With goals being far from abundant, a scoreless deadlock is the pick and the draw odds available in the match winner market look like pretty good value.

These sides have not been at their best in front of goal. Deportivo Tachira have only scored twice in their last 6 home starts which isn't the form they will have wanted. Portuguesa have averaged 0.5 goals in their last 6 away campaigns.

In previous matches between these sides 2 of the last 3 have ended in a draw.

The match could unfold into a game of tiny margins with the two sides ultimately being well matched. It isn't huge value but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough. And in the total goals line, it's under 1.5 goals that stands out here considering the prices available.

Deportivo Tachira have drawn 8 of their last 16 matches on their own soil. They drew 2-2 with Estudiantes Merida at home in September. Portuguesa have drawn 12 of their last 17 matches on the road. This will probably be a close encounter and the pick has to be with the value offered up by the draw price. Ultimately, you could do worse things than cheering on a deadlock.
