Comunicaciones FC vs Antigua GFC Prediction: Home Side Favorite for Winning

In the upcoming fixture of Liga Nacional de Guatemala, Clausura Semi-Finals, Leg 2, and Comunicaciones FC will be up against Antigua GFC at the Estadio Doroteo Guamuch Flores in Guatemala City. After finishing the first leg with a 0-0 scoreline, both teams will have some pressure bothering them. In the last five matches played between the two, Comunicaciones has won twice, whereas Antigua has been successful just once. Continue reading to find out more about the upcoming matchup. 

Going in the matchup, Comunicaciones FC is coming off a draw against Antigua Guatemala (0-0) and a win previously against Deportivo Achuapa (4-1). With an unbeaten run of 12 matches at home in Liga Nacional, Comunicaciones is likely to unsettle Antigua in the upcoming matchup. Moreover, the home side has managed to keep clean sheets in the previous three home matches in Liga Nacional de Guatemala. With a phenomenal conceding average of just 0.60 goals in home fixtures, Comunicaciones is likely to make Antigua work hard to even score a goal. With 2 draws, 2 wins, and a defeat in the last five matches played, Comunicaciones will be looking forward to securing a top win against Antigua. In the last five matches played, Comunicaciones has scored 6 goals, averaging 1.20, and has conceded only 4 goals, averaging 0.80 goals per game. 

Going in the matchup, Antigua Guatemala will be looking to carry the unbeaten run forward, as it has won two and drawn a fixture in the last three matches played. With the likes of Bradley and Hernandez in the lineup, Antigua will be looking forward to playing its natural game and securing an early lead in the contest. In the last five matches played, Antigua has scored 7 goals, averaging 1.40 goals per game. In comparison to the scoring average, Antigua has conceded 11 goals, averaging 2.20 goals per game. Hence, Antigua will have to improve its defense, especially in away encounters. If Antigua manages to score a goal early and restrict the opposition from scoring, we might have a twist toward the final phase of play. About Antigua’s overall progress, it has won just 2 of its last 11 away matches in Liga Nacional de Guatemala.  

Considering the significant home advantage for Comunicaciones FC at home, the upcoming matchup is likely to have the home side outclassing the visitors. On the other hand, Antigua will be looking to strike early and destabilize the Comunicaciones' home advantage. The match total is likely to be over 2.5 goals, as in the last home match Comunicaciones scored 4 goals against Achuapa. I am expecting both sides to score, and the final scoreline to be 2-1 for 3-1.
