Ferretti vs Las Sabanas Betting Odds and Predictions

Ferretti in playoff form

Two of the six playoff participants have already been determined two game days before the end of the season in Nicaraguan Clausura. Managua FC, Real Esteli, Diriangen and Ferretti have arithmetically secured the ticket for the championship playoffs. Two starting places are currently being played out among three teams.

In the night from Wednesday to Thursday, the 17th and penultimate day of the regular season rises in Nicaragua. With the match between Walter Ferretti vs. Las Sabanas there is a duel between the best offensive and the worst defensive of the Nicaraguan Clausura – bet, we can expect a shooting festival of the home side?

Bookmakers see Ferretti as favorites against Las Sabanas according to odds. A tip on the home side is probably the best choice in the 1X2 market given the previous record of both teams. It is quite possible that Walter Ferretti – after all four-time champion and last year’s semi-finalist in the Apertura – warms up for the upcoming championship playoffs.

Ferretti – Statistics & current form

CD Walter Ferretti became champion of the regular season in the last Apertura, the first of two half-yearly seasons in Nicaragua. So there was no title for the black-red, but the direct right to start for the semi-finals of the championship playoffs. Despite a good starting position from the semi-final first leg, CD Walter Ferretti had to cut sail in the second leg against city rivals Managua FC.

Next attempt at the title

In the Clausura there is now the next attempt to win the title. So far, the black-reds have won the championship four times from the Nicaraguan capital. Since the 2017 season, however, the four-time champion from Managua has not won the title. It remains to be seen to what extent the team around head coach Henry Urbina can achieve the title coup this season.

The Clausura 2020 started with some setbacks for CD Walter Ferretti. Just in time for the end of the regular season, the black and red have picked up speed and are already in playoff form. Most recently, Ferretti won four of the last five league games, scoring 14 goals in total – seven of them in the home game against Chinandega.

Best offensive in the league

Anyway, CD Walter Ferretti with 29 goals in 16 games is the best offensive in Clausura. The two offensive players Fernando Villalpando and Leandro Figueroa play a major role in this. The latter scored in the recent league game against Ocotal (1-0). The Ferretti striker duo has a total of 16 goals.

Henry Urbina is unlikely to make any changes to the starting eleven after his team’s recent winning streak. In the last home game of the regular season, a shooting festival of the capital city club should not be excluded. For a normal home win by Walter Ferretti vs. Las Sabanas are currently offering odds of 1.31.

Probable lineup of Ferretti:

➤ Espinoza – Tapia, Lanuza, Huete, Nino, Castillo, Mendoza, Figueroa, Garcia, Flores, Villalpando

Las Sabanas – Statistics & current form

Downhill fear at Deportivo Las Sabanas? The blue-whites fear for relegation after the catastrophic season in the Clausura. If the points from the two independent championships in Apertura and Clausura are added together, Las Sabanas currently occupies eighth place in the overall table of the Liga Primera.

“Do or Die” on the last two matchdays

In total, the blue-whites have 34 points in the overall table. Deportivo Las Sabanas thus only separates a single point from the red zone in the overall table. In the worst scenario, Las Sabanas could face relegation to the second division if they lost two games on the last two matchdays. But Real Madriz (9th) and Deportivo Ocotal (10th) have to win the last two games in the Clausura.

Considering that Las Sabanas was still participating in the championship playoffs in the Apertura, the season so far in the Clausura was surprising. With ten goals, Jorge Luis Vanegas’ team is the weakest offensive in the league; with 28 goals conceded the worst defense of the Clausura. Two game days before the end of the season there is not really a trend reversal in sight.

Shooting gallery of the league

In the eight away games of the current season, Las Sabanas had a miserable away record of 1-1-6. No other team conceded more goals in eight away games than the blue-whites (20). On average, Deportivo Las Sabanas conceded 2.50 goals per away game.

After an away misery of five defeats in series, a point win was recently achieved. If it is up to the previous performances in the Clausura, a point win from Deportivo Las Sabanas with the home and offensive strong Walter Ferretti is rather unrealistic. Accordingly, we also find no arguments for a Ferretti vs. Sabanas prediction speak to the guests.

Probable lineups of Las Sabanas:

➤ Mosquera – Lopez, Agurcia, Salgado, Reyes, Benavides, Corrales, Lopez, Sanchez, Pereira, Arostegui

Last games from Las Sabanas:

⚽️ 04/12 2020 Deportivo Las Sabanas 0 – 1 Managua FC
