LDU Quito vs Botafogo prediction

In the first-leg of this CONMEBOL Copa Libertadores round of 16 tie at the Estadio Nilton Santos in Rio de Janeiro last weekend, Botafogo edged past LDU Quito by a goal to nil. The Brazilians took a first minute lead via Artur and managed to cling on to that one-goal advantage to take to the Ecuadorian capital this week.

LDU Quito come into this one on the back of a 1-1 draw with Manta in the Ecuadorian LigaPro at the weekend, sitting nine points adrift of Independiente del Valle at the top-of-the-table. Botafogo were beaten by Palmeiras, though, to leave them sitting outside of the top four in the Brazilian Serie A table.

Botafogo will be concerned that they haven’t been able to put the tie to bed and, LDU Quito, with their home advantage, will fancy their chances of overturning the deficit.

LDU Quito vs Botafogo tip: Double chance – LDU Quito to win or draw
