MYBOOKIE: CONCACAF Champions League Games – (3/14 games)

 

Austin FC vs. Violette

Odds: Austin FC -3.5 | Austin FC -1886, Violette +3900 Draw +1225 | O/U 3.5
When: Tuesday, March 14, 2023 at 8:00 pm ET
Where: Q2 Stadium, Austin, USA
TV / Streaming: ESPN

The boys from Texas lost the opening game 3-0, which was a massive sensation and one of the biggest surprises of the week in the soccer world. Even though the MLS side played with a mixed lineup, such humiliation was unacceptable due to a massive difference in quality and finances, which doesn’t always guarantee success, but usually does.

The good thing for Austin FC was a quick bounce back following the defeat and a victory on the road in Salt Lake against Real, 1-2. This was their third event in the past four in which three or more goals took place.

What happened at Port-au-Prince wasn’t expected even by the hosts. This team has a colorful background and was even the CONCACAF Champions Cup winner in 1984, but the competition was significantly weaker at the time.

They are the reigning Caribbean Club Champions, who now have four straight wins on the international stage, though with the previous one coming last year.

It would be another massive sensation to see Austin not winning here, and since they have a home-court edge, they should even be able to cover the gap from the first meeting. They probably won’t underestimate the rivals this time.

Philadelphia Union vs. Alianza 

Odds: Philadelphia -1.5 | Philadelphia -309, Alianza +870 Draw +420 | O/U 2.5
When: Tuesday, March 14, 2023 at 8:00 pm ET
Where: Subaru Park, Philadelphia, USA
TV / Streaming: ESPN

Unlike Austin, Philadelphia Union stayed unbeaten in its first leg, which was against Alianza DC in El Salvador. The Union played without goals at the Estadio Cuscatalan in San Salvador, though, having a few chances to get back home with a win in its bag.

Afterward, they had a very tough game at home against Chicago Fire, which they managed to win with a minimal score, 1-0, as Joaquin Torres netted in the last minute of the regulation.

As for the guests from El Salvador, they are an adamant and challenging team that prefers a low pace and implements plenty of tactical variations, usually defensive-minded.

Alianza hasn’t been defeated since late January, and throughout that period, most of their games have seen under 2.5 goals, and they keep clean sheets.

For sure, Alianza comes to Philly to defend and waits for the opportunity to strike from the counter-attack. The Union knows how to deal with rivals like this, which is why the bookies see them as massive favorites.

Atlas vs. Olimpia

Odds: Atlas – | Atlas -, Atlas – | O/U –
When: Tuesday, March 14, 2023 at 10:15 pm ET
Where: Estadio Jalisco, Guadalajara, Mexico
TV / Streaming: ESPN

Atlas is in very poor shape, and losing to Olimpia in Tegucigalpa 4-1 was nothing spectacular for many of its fans. The Mexican side completely lost its direction over the past few weeks, and they are in one horrible place at the moment.

Eleven games without a victory, of which five were defeats, clearly indicate that this unit needs radical changes. Atlas struggles to deliver in all the areas on the field, but the attack is by far the worst, as it failed to score in four of the past five games at home.

Olimpia lost 2-0 this weekend to Marathon in the domestic championship, the first defeat for this crew since January. Unlike Atlas, things are going smoothly for the club from Honduras.

When looking at their road events, Olimpia has a very high percentage of victories, eight in the previous ten, which boosts their morale ahead of Tuesday’s clash.

The hosts are deflated and hurt by various problems, while the guests come to Guadalajara to steal time on the field and finish the business. That’s why we don’t expect to see some action and drama in this event.
