 by Simon Day | in Concachampions Picks

The Vancouver Whitecaps host Deportivo Saprissa on Thursday ngiht, wich a place in the second round of the Concacaf Champions Cup up for grabs. Deportivo came from behind to claim a narrow 2-1 victory in last week's first leg. The Whitecaps looked to be heading for a crucial away win thanks to an early strike from Ryan Gauld, but the Costa Ricans hit back to claim the win with second half goals from Mariano Torres and Ariel Rodríguez. Since that first leg encounter, both sides have recorded a domestic victory. The Whitecaps were especially impressive in their 1-4 road win in Portland, whilst Deportivo eased to a 2-0 victory over Sporting San Jose.

Our Vancouver Whitecaps vs Deportivo Saprissa San Jose Prediction

This is an extrremly tight game to call and the first leg demonstrated just how evenly matched these sides are. As such, we are steering clear of picking a winner and instead looking at the total goals markets. Defense is the big strength for both teams so we are expecting a cagey second leg with few clearcut chances. We would not be surprised to see a 0-0 stalemate or a narrow 1-0 win for either team, but we are taking a safer option and our prediction for Vancouver Whitecaps vs Desportivo Saprissa is: Under 2.5 goals.

Prediction:

 

Under 2.5 goals
