We have a full round of fixtures in the Bolivia Liga de Fútbol Prof this weekend, including the meeting between Nacional Potosí and The Strongest.
The game will be played at the Estadio Victor Agustín Ugarte on the 24th of June and the hosts begin the weekend in second place on 29 points while the visitors are top of the table on 33 points.
Nacional Potosí come into the match on the back of a 2-2 draw at Royal Pari in the Liga de Fútbol Prof.
It was a disappointing result and dropped points against a team in the bottom half of the table and Nacional Potosí were 2-0 up at half time.
Even though Royal Pari were reduced to ten men in the second half, Nacional Potosí could not hold on and conceded 2 goals.
The draw at Royal Pari means Nacional Potosí are undefeated in 5 of their 6 most recent fixtures, all of which were played in the Liga de Fútbol Prof.
There have been wins over Bolivar, Real Tomayapo, and Guabira at home plus Palmaflor away. The only defeat came away to Real Santa Cruz and it was a 2-0 loss.
Trends show Nacional Potosí are tough to beat and they have not lost a match in 26 of their last 28 home matches in Liga de Fútbol Prof.
They have won each of their last 4 league games at home and have seen over 2.5 goals in those 4 matches.
The Strongest travel to the Estadio Victor Agustín Ugarte having lost 2-1 at home against Sporting Cristal in the Copa Libertadores.
Having opened the scoring in the 13th minute, The Strongest conceded a goal in each half, the second of which came in the 80th minute when the opposition were down to ten players.
The defeat against Sporting Cristal means The Strongest have lost 2 of their 3 most recent fixtures in all competitions.
The other defeat came away against Always Ready in the Liga de Fútbol Prof. However, sandwiched between the two losses was a 1-0 home win in the Liga de Fútbol Prof against Jorge Wilstermann.
Trends show in their 38 most recent matches in the Liga de Fútbol Prof, The Strongest have been undefeated 34 times.
They have not suffered any defeats in their 7 most recent games against Nacional Potosí in Liga de Fútbol Prof.
Team news and Nacional Potosí will start with the experienced duo of Tommy Tobar and Martin Prost in attack.
The Strongest are likely to pair Enrique Triverio and Junior Arias in their attack, with support from Michael Ortega in midfield.
This should be a hugely entertaining game to watch, with both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals scored. With only 4 league fixtures remaining after this match, the outcome could prove key in the title race and we expect to see The Strongest stretch their lead at the top with a victory.
