Draw between Herediano and Pacific
The first game between Herediano and Pacific ended with a narrow 0:1 victory in favor of Herediano. The result could’ve easily been a 0:0 as there weren’t all that many chances for goal in this game. The last game for Herediano back home was a 1:2 away victory against Santos de Guapiles that was close to ending in a draw as well. We believe Pacific will not make the same mistake twice and won’t underestimate Herediano on the 24th of August.
Both teams to score – no
Pacific couldn’t score against Herediano in the first game that was played in Canada and we don’t think that the team will score in this game either. Herediano is a good home team and the games played at Estadio Eladio Rosabal Cordero are always difficult ones. Herediano scored three clean sheets in the last five games played at Estadio Eladio Rosabal Cordero and we predict this will be the case again.
Squad insight for Herediano vs Pacific
Coach Hernan Medford will have to find a solution to a key defensive injury issue.
Herediano’s lineup
The major issue for Herediano is Aaron Salazar’s injury. He won’t be playing against Pacific on the 24th of August and it will be up to Ariel Soto to fill in the gaps in the defense. We believe he will do just fine as he was the main defender in the first game.
Pacific’s lineup
Gianni dos Santos and Cedric Toussaint will probably sit this one out. They were substituted early in the first game and it’s clear that the coach isn’t happy with what he is seeing from the two.
