Ultimately, this looks a tie that’s hard to call over two legs and will be separated by whoever best uses their home advantage. When looking at this first leg as a standalone fixture, Deportivo Cali are clear and obvious favourites and know they really need to establish a lead to take with them to the return fixture.
All things considered, backing a home win on the full time line looks the best way to play as far as the betting is concerned and is exactly where our money is going at a more than reasonable price. Deportivo Cali are pretty strong on their own patch and with Penarol so consistently poor on the road in continental competition, a 1-0 margin of home victory could well be on the cards.
