Expert Betting Tips

Santa Fe has struggled in away encounters, as it has managed to win just one and draw four of the nine matches played this season. Hence, the visitors might have problems starting against Once Caldas. However, I am backing Santa Fe to win and consolidate its standing in the top eight. As Santa Fe has allowed goals at an average of 1.00 in the last five matches, I am expecting both teams to score. The match total is likely to be over 2.5 goals, and Santa Fe to win. Hugo Rodallega will be in the spotlight for scoring a goal anytime during the gameplay.
