Match Preview
As Grêmio prepares to host Sportivo Luqueño in the Copa Sudamericana, the Brazilian side enters the match with a mixed bag of recent performances, recording two wins and three losses in their last five outings. In contrast, Luqueño’s form has been even less encouraging, with just one draw and four losses in their last five games. This disparity in form suggests that Grêmio will be the stronger contender, particularly given their home advantage at the Arena do Grêmio.
One notable angle to consider is the historical head-to-head record, which shows Grêmio has had the upper hand in their previous encounters, winning two out of the last ten matches against Luqueño. Additionally, the odds reflect this sentiment, with Grêmio heavily favoured at 1.2. However, the odds for both teams to score (BTTS) at 2.5 could be worth exploring, as Luqueño may look to exploit any defensive lapses from the hosts. Overall, while Grêmio is expected to dominate, the potential for a competitive match remains.
