Match Preview
Estudiantes will host Carabobo in the Copa Libertadores on 28 May, and the match promises to be a significant clash for both teams. Estudiantes enters the fixture in solid form, having secured three wins in their last five matches, while Carabobo struggles with a dismal run of five consecutive losses. This stark contrast in form could heavily influence the outcome, particularly given Estudiantes' home advantage at the Estadio Ciudad de La Plata, where they have historically performed well against weaker opposition.
One notable angle to consider is Estudiantes' defensive solidity, as evidenced by their recent performances, where they have kept clean sheets in four of their last five matches. With Carabobo's inability to find the back of the net, the odds of BTTS (both teams to score) at 2.75 suggest that a low-scoring affair is likely. Given the home side's strong form and defensive record, a straightforward win for Estudiantes seems the most probable outcome, making the odds of 1.12 for a home victory particularly appealing.
