+ What is Bolillo Gómez going to change to reverse Junior’s situation?
After the resounding failure of hiring Arturo Reyes as a property technician, the Junior de Barranquilla board of directors opted to look for a old fox. El Bolillo Gómez is a veteran of a thousand battles who arrives at one of the heaviest dressing rooms in Colombia with other ideas, another regime. Defensive order, more physical work and one hundred percent motivation looking to get out of an unusual place for the coastal team.
The rojiblanco team is last in the BetPlay League standings with 6 points. They have only won one game out of the 7 they have played in the championship, scoring just 4 goals and conceding 6. Since the first semester of 2017, Junior has not occupied this place in a championship in which he is always the protagonist.. The investment that the Char family makes is not to be in such a situation.
Now with Bolillo in the technical direction things can change, or at least that’s what the fans hope. The veteran coach stated that in this match it is unlikely that his hand will be noticed, but the work he has done in his first training sessions in charge of the squad show that he will see a different Junior.
Regarding the record against Santa Fe playing at home, The Sharks They have a positive background. He only lost one of the last five games he played against the capital team at the Metropolitan Stadium. The fans hope to return to the path of victory this Saturday.
Nobility obliges, it must be said that until a couple of dates ago the situation of Independiente Santa Fe was not very different from what Junior has today. The gait of those directed by Harold Rivera changed in the last weekthanks to the fact that they qualified for the group stage of Sudamericana and added three points against América de Cali.
He Red Express managed to get out of the bottom of the standings after beating the Red Devils in the Nemesio Camacho el Campín. They arrive in Barranquilla ranked #12 in the BetPlay League with 9 points and the idea is to remain victorious or, at least, not lose to one of the weakest Juniors in recent years.
Those of Rivera have been a rather irregular group in the current championship. For the sample: has conceded the same number of goals they have scored. As for the matches as a visitor, you already know what it is to draw in Montería against Jaguares in the Atanasio vs. DIM and lose against Envigado in the Poliderpotivo Sur. He beat La Equidad in Techo.
Although Junior comes from two losses and Santa Fe from two victories, the reality is that this is still an even game between two great Colombian professional soccer players. It will be very close and what we recommend in Futbolete is to place a bet that has to do with the goals. promptly that both teams score.
The people from the capital scored goals in the last 8 away games, regardless of the result they could have gotten. That data, combined with the need that Junior has to score and wincan lead to a match with goals from side to side.
