NextGOAL tip: Deportivo Cuenca +0.25 · 2 stars
In the last 5 meetings, Deportivo Cuenca won 3 and drew 1 (including a 2-1 win in May and a 0-2 win in September), but this time the situation is different because Técnico Universitario are in their worst form of the season, losing 4 of their last 5 matches, especially with a heavy late-game defensive record, conceding 34% of all goals between the 76th and 90th minutes, which is exactly when Deportivo Cuenca like to score (24% between 61-75 minutes and 20% between 76-90 minutes). The away team's form is not great either, losing 3 of their last 5 matches, but in away games against this opponent they have done better. The first thing to watch after the kick-off is whether Técnico Universitario's defense can handle Deportivo Cuenca's counter-attacks in the first 15 minutes, as the home side concede 13% of their goals in that period, while the away team score 6% of theirs then.
