THE PREDICTION
A narrow 1-0 win for Santos in Brazil leaves this tie still very open ahead of the second leg. With home advantage in their favour, Independiente will be confident of overturn the deficit faced, however they will be well aware that a Santos away goal would leave them with a mountain to climb. Therefore, a tense and slow affair appears on the cards although as they match goes on things may open up especially if Independiente have not yet found the net. The last seven fixtures in all competitions featuring Independiente have seen under 2.5 goals scored and the same outcome is expected to occur here, regardless of who advances to the quarter-finals.
