San Carlos vs Saprissa tips and predictions

Jury's still out in Primera Division battle

There's not much between San Carlos and Saprissa in the Primera Division. The hosts are in second place with 7 points, compared to their opponents who are in fourth place on 5 points.

With both sides confident of success it is hard to make a case for either side. In these scenarios the draw is often the better bet.

Any result is possible here. The draw is food for thought as far as this preview is concerned.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, 8 of the last 19 have ended in a draw.

Most previews are saying that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match as the teams are nicely matched. Nothing massively jumps out from the Both Teams To Score market. The Yes BTTS is the pick.

San Carlos have drawn 7 of their last 17 matches on their own soil, most recently when they drew 1-1 with Cartagines at home last week. Saprissa have drawn 4 of their last 7 matches. They couldn't put any distance between themselves and Cartagines last Sunday and while the prediction is for any draw, a 1-1 scoreline shouldn't be dismissed here. It's not very exciting and it feels like a match to be on your guard about. The draw is the play.
