Blooming vs The Strongest Match Preview

Blooming is ranked at 8th place with 38 points and comes not in their best shape after two wins and three losses over the last five matches. They sit in the last spot that gives a ticket for the Copa Sudamericana but it should be tough to keep that after this final week considering the rival they face. They were on a three game losing streak winning against a poor San Jose team with a 4-0 result.

The thing is that they do not have an exceptional offensive side with 37 goals scored so far, having the 6th best attack from the teams in the top eight while also having the second worst defense with 40 goals conceded. They have a negative goal difference and in the last five matches they have scored eight goals while conceding six.

The Strongest, on the other hand, is ranked at the second spot with 47 points and comes after three wins and two losses over the last five matches. They sit only one point behind Always Ready and must win here in order to hope for a false step by their rivals. If they grab the three points here and Always Ready draws or losses their game then The Strongest will be the new champions.

If it wasn't for that shocking game that they lost against Guabira where they were leading 0-2 but conceded three goals in the final 15 minutes. They have the best offensive side in the league with 62 goals scored averaging more than two goals per game and this could be a crucial factor considering their rivals have a leaky defense.

In conclusion, I think The Strongest can win this match. They aim for the title which is a lot more than Blooming is aiming at and the motivation should be at its highest. Their striker Reinoso is also in the race for top scorer and will seek to add some goals. Blooming complicated their situation losing three consecutive games and I guess they just lack the quality needed to stop a team like The Strongest in the final encounter.
