Club Millonarios vs Deportivo Cali Prediction: Can Millonarios Win Comprehensively at Home?

In the upcoming fixture of Colombia Categoria A, Matchday 7, Millonarios will take on Deportivo Cali at the Estadio Nemésio Camacho - El Campín in Bogota. Going in the matchup, Millonarios stands 11th with 2 wins and 6 points from 3 matches played. On the other hand, Deportivo Cali stands 12th with just a win and 3 drawn matches from 5 matches played in the contest so far. Millonarios and Deportivo Cali have shared a decorated record of playing against each other in Colombia Categoria A fixtures mostly. The last time these two teams played, Millonarios won a high scoring event (4-2).

Going in the matchup, Club Millonarios is coming off a win against Universidad Catolica (2-1) in Leg 2 of Libertadores’s second round. Against Catolica, Leonardo Castro and Daniel Catano scored goals during the 60th-70th minute of play. With the likes of Oscar Cortes, Juan Pablo Vargas, and David Silva in the lineup, Club Millonarios is likely to play with a pretty balanced structure. Millonarios has won three of its last home matches, which makes them favorites for the upcoming match against Cali. With a goal scoring average of 1.30 goals in the last 10 home matches, Millonarios is likely to score a goal at least. In contrast to the scoring average, the conceding average is just 0.70 which is quite reasonable.

• Leonardo Castro
• Oscar Cortes
• David Silva

Going in the matchup, pressure will be on the home side, as Cali has failed to score in 6 of its last 10 away fixtures. Going in the match, Deportivo Cali is coming off a defeat against Deportivo Pereira (0-1) in which Cali’s attack failed in scoring an equalizer. With a goal scoring average of 1.10 goals in the last 10 away matches, Cali might struggle against Millonarios. However, what makes Cali unlikely to win is its conceding average that is over 2.00 goals. If Cali manages to score one goal in the middle phase, it will give their mid-fielders a chance to infiltrate through the defenses of Millonarios.

• Andres Arroyo
• Adrian Parra
• Daniel Mantilla

Going in the matchup, Millonarios will stand as a competitive favorite for winning and scoring over 2 goals. As Millonarios has scored at least 2 goals in 5 of their last 10 matches, I am expecting 2 or more goals from them. Cali will also be in the groove for scoring at least a goal. Hence, I am predicting a high scoring event just like before. The final scoreline is predicted to be 2-1 at the end of 90 minutes of official play.

• Millonarios to Win for 1.70
• Total Over 2.5 for 2.00
• Both Teams To Score - Yes for 1.92
