Always Ready vs LDU Quito Prediction: Always Ready will have to do the impossible

Always Ready paid the price of inexperience in the first match in Ecuador, while LDU Quito, one of the most constant teams in the international competitions in South America used it and won 3:0. Always Ready are playing very well this season at home, but it seems a bit unbelievable for them to win with more than 3 goals against LDU Quito at Estadio Municipal de El Alto. 

Always Ready

Form: DLDLL

Always Ready are for the first time in the knockout phase of this competition and it was visible in the first match. The players were very nervous, and they made beginner's mistakes. They had only one shoot at goal which is below any standard of this competition. Their good form in this stadium is giving them hope that they can come back after the disaster in the first match. Always Ready are undefeated in the last 6 matches at home, winning 5 and drawing one match.

LDU Quito

Form: WDWWL

LDU Quito were knocked out of the Copa Libertadores which was a very big disappointment for them. They finished in 3rd place in the group and now a good result in Copa Sudamericana is something that is like imperative for this team. In their last 5 away matches, LDU Quito have 2 draws, 2 defeats and a win. However, they haven’t lost with a bigger goal margin than 3 or more goals since 2022. They played three times against Bolivian teams and lost all three matches as visitors in this country, scoring only one goal.

Expert Betting Tips

Always Ready are a slight favorite for winning this match at home, but it’s hard to expect and believe that this team can overcome the result of the first match. I expect a very tense match, Always Ready will attack from the start, but LDU Quito have enough experience to deal with that kind of pressure and proceed to the next phase. I can see Always Ready winning the match with one goal difference, and LDU Quito in the next round of this competition.
