Deportivo Quito - Olmedo

Ecuador Primera Division

Deportivo Quito is in good form, and they are looking better by the day, meaning that coach Sevilla really made a difference. 3 matches played since he arrived, and only 1 draw, but against the leaders from LDU. Both the other matches were won away from home. New striker double Gonzalez-Vigil and 'Zlatan' Fernandez are working good, and I only expect improvement from their part. They are pretty much out of any Libertadores race, but will still need some points for next year's Copa Sudamericana, and I guess that's on their agenda. Sevilla won't make any major changes in the line-up, and the only rotation will be in goal, where regular Ibarra is injured.

Olmedo's for is at the lowest, and so is morale. They carry 7 matches without a win, and couldn't do too much last week, but to keep a minimum difference against a second-string LDU team. So far, it looks like they will repeat the line-up that they fielded last week, and let's face it: their best players are average at their best. No clear idea in attack, poor finishing, and despite some usual solid defending, they can break easily under the pressure. And with the Vigil-Fernandez double working like charm (also helped a lot by Saritama and Minda), they will come under a lot of pressure. Deportivo to win by more than one goal looks tasty and realistical. GL!
