Nacional Montevideo - Montevideo Wanderers

Uruguay Primera Division, Clausura

The Uruguay Clausura is starting tonight, and a lot is expected from several team. Nacional is of course one of them, because ever since Juan Ramon Carrasco took over, the club has been reborn. Carrasco won 6 games and drew another 2, to finish Apertura as 2nd in the tables. And every time one of his teams are playing, the viewers can be sure to see a nice show. Carrasco is known as a super-offensive coach, and he rarely starts a match with less than 3 strikers on the pitch, and he has been doing that since his early managerial career. And we can look even at Nacional in the Apertura, where they managed to score 20 goals in the 8 games under his command. And for today, a 3-3-1-3 system is expected, and that is clearly a message of 'score as much as possible'. Wanderers also isn't a team to crowd the defense and hope for a draw. They have some fast players, and try to take advantage of the opposition's spaces every time possible. And since Nacional will be focused on attack, and with their ultra-offensive tactics, Wanderes will have plenty of spaces. The line for the over seems small, and I doubt we'll be seeing anything less than 3 goals. GL!

over 2.5 goals @ 1.88, 4/10
Result: 1-1, LOST
