Independiente del Valle vs Deportivo Tachira Prediction: Independiente Likely to Win and Qualify

In the upcoming fixture of Copa Sudamericana, Independiente del Valle will be taking on Deportivo Tachira in an exciting matchup, deciding the semifinalist for the next game. Deportivo Tachira looks a little out of touch as it lost the game against Zamora FC (2-0) in the Venezuela Primera Division. With the overall momentum and advantage residing with the home side, Deportivo Tachira will need to produce something exceptional and extraordinary to win against Independiente del Valle. 

From their last five games played, Independiente del Valle has just lost a single game, which is quite exceptional and will give them confidence in the Sudamericana playoffs. Going in the game against Deportivo Tachira, Independiente del Valle will be taking confidence from their win against Orense (1-2), in which Julio Ortiz and Jonathan Jesus scored important goals in crunch situations. If Independiente del Valle continues playing with the same spirits, they can win easily and qualify for the next round.

• Julio Ortiz
• Marco Angulo
• Jonathan Jesus

After winning against Metropolitnaos FC (3-0), Deportivo Tachira lost their little stint. After losing phase 1 of the Quarterfinal, Deportivo Tachira lost to Zamora FC (2-0). Throughout the 90 minutes of play, Deportivo Tachira was unable to come up with an attacking strategy that could neutralize the opposition. Deportivo Tachira’s away record has been on the decline as they haven’t won an away game in their last 7 matches. 

• Francisco Flores
• Maurice Jesus Cova
• Rafael Arace

Going in the game, I will be backing the absolute favorites, Independiente del Valle, to win and score at least 1 goal. Deportivo Tachira doesn’t look in fine-tuned shape and is unlikely to score a goal. Hence, an easy qualification is waiting for Independiente del Valle.

• Both Teams to Score - No for 1.61
