Xinabajul vs Antigua GFC Prediction: Antigua to Sweep Another Win

In the upcoming fixture of the Liga Nacional de Guatemala, Matchday 11, Xinabajul will lock horns with Antigua GFC at the Estadio Los Cuchumatanes in Huehuetenango. Going in the matchup, Antigua stands 5th with 4 wins and 14 points from 10 matches played. On the other hand, Xinabajul stands 6th with 3 wins and 13 points in the contest so far. The upcoming matchup will be important for the two sides as they both aspire to stay in the top five standings. If Antigua manages to win away from home, it will give them three important points. The last time these two played against each other, Antigua Guatemala won 3-0 comfortably. 

Going in the matchup against Antigua, Xinabajul will look to compensate for the previous drawn matches and gain three important win points from the home fixture. In the last outing against Coban Imperial, Gerson Tinoco scored the important goal in the 73rd minute of play. For Xinabajul, Bruno Paladini will be benched due to the red card suspension in the last outing. In the last 5 home matches, Xinabajul have seen under 2.5 goals, which makes the upcoming matchup likely to be a low scoring one. With 4 goals scored in the last 5 matches played, Xinabajul averages 0.8 goals per game. Therefore, it’s evident that the home side can’t win comprehensively if they continue with this scoring average.

• Gerson Tinoco
• Dominique Dean

With just a defeat from the last five matches played in the competition, Antigua Guatemala is progressing quite well lately. Coming off a win against CSD Municipal (2-1), Cristian Hernandez and Oscar Santis scored goals. Secondly, Antigua has scored 6 goals in the last 5 matches played, averaging 1.2 goals per game. With an unbeaten run in the last three games, Antigua will be looking positive for winning their upcoming away outing. With a conceding average of just 0.8 goals in the last 5 matches played, Antigua is likely to restrict the home favorite from scoring freely.

• Carlos Mejia

Going forward in the Liga Nacional, the two competing teams will be eager for securing three important win points. For the upcoming matchup one thing is clear we will be expecting a result. However, the odds during the match could swing in either side’s court. Apart from the odds, I am backing Antigua to win and exploit the poor run of Xinabajul. The game total is expected to be under 2.5 goals as neither of the two have expressive goal-scoring average this season. Therefore, the final scoreline is expected to be 0-1 or 0-2.

• Antigua GFC to Win for 2.50
• Both Teams to Score - No for 1.725
• Total Under 2.5 for 1.57
