El Nacional - LDU Quito

Ecuador Serie A, Primera Etapa

El Nacional is one strange team. They can suck throughout 90% of the season, but they can still pull off some great results against the league giants (2-1 at home with Emelec and Deportivo Quito, and a narrow 2-3 loss at LDU, after missing a penalty at 2-2 in the 75th minute). Of course, this all compensates with other matches, like the back to back losses with Cuenca, the 0-5 trashing at Emelec, etc, but the thing is that they are capable of giving everyone a scare. However, for tomorrow's match with LDU, they should suffer a lot, as they will be missing 4 key players: goalkeeper Garcia (12 matches), defenders Chila (10) and Lopez (11), plus midfielder Pita (10). So a pretty decimated team, without some of their most important players. Liga de Quito comes into this match with only one important absence, Ambrosi. Other than him, all the players are fit to play, and I'm sure they'll want to capitalize on their recent good run of form (undefeated in the last 6 matches). GL!

LDU (-0.25 AH) @ 1.83, 4/10
Result: 1-1, HALF-LOST
