Ecuador Serie A, Primera Etapa
Finally, some odds higher than 2 for Liga de Quito away from home. Probably because of their recent narrow win against Independiente Jose Teran, but the score might be a bit unfair, as LDU could have easily won it by at least 3 goals. And today's match catches them in a good moment. First of all, a win will put them top, something that seemed a bit far-fetched a few weeks ago, when Liga was struggling and Deportivo Quito seemed unstoppable. Secondly, goalscorer Hernan Barcos is finally past his injury, and it looks like he will start the match as a regular. Also, they have managed to recover 2 of their injured defenders, and having rested them on mid-week, they should be at 100% now, and should give more stability to the defense. They probably won't be resting any regulars, so we should have a full strength LDU, eager to get the first place. El Nacional is doing quite ok so far in the league, but that's how they usually do, and it all stops when they face one of the big guns. This season happened already, losing at home with Deportivo Quito, 0-3. LDU haven't lost to them since early 2008, and as things are standing now, I don't see them losing. Probably a hard-fought win for the visitors, but a win nonetheless. GL!
LDU Quito (-0.25 AH) @ 2.12, 4/10
Result: 1-2, WON
