Match preview: UNAM Pumas - Marathon 2010-03-19 (CONCACAF Champions League)

Full strength Pumas

Pumas continued their good run in the league with a 0-0 draw away at the overall leaders, after three consecutive victories, meaning that resting the regulars in the first leg of the Champions League payed-off. They have pretty good chances to go in the play-offs, so, for the moment, the balance of interest has moved towards the continental competition. There, they have lost the first leg 0-2, after two penalties, but they were using an alternative squad, consisting of reserve players and some youngsters. But now, they consider advancement in the next round more important than giving the youngsters some match experience, so they will use their best possible squad, in order to overturn the two-goal deficit. bet now

Hopefull Hondurans

For the Hondurans, the win against Pumas was the confidence boost they needed, as during the weekend they finally managed to win after four matches without doing so, and the victory was very important for them, as they keep their hopes alive for the play-offs. But they had to pay a price for that victory, as they used almost the same team that played mid-week in the Champions League, and most probable the same team that will play this Thursday night, so some fatigue is sure to get to the players. And here, we could also add some jet-lag, as the Hondurans had to travel around 1600 km to Mexico City. But their away record in this competition, against some decent opposition isn`t anything to be excited about, as they lost 0-3 at DC United, and were trashed 0-7 in Mexico, against Toluca, so they really need to get into the 9th gear if they want something today. online betting

Mexican demolition expected

I can`t see anything past a home win here, and a very comprehensible one. Pumas are clearly wanting a semi-final place, and with their first choice players, they are more than able to get it. I expect Marathon to come to Mexico defending, hoping to keep the aggregate advantage for as long as possible, and their athleticism can be a small advantage for them in a normal game, but not against a clearly superior skilled Pumas side, fired-up to overturn the result. It probably won`t be another 0-7 for Marathon (let`s keep in mind that in that match, they were a man down at 0-2), but I expect a comfortable scoreline for the Mexicans. Good luck! bet online
