Boca Juniors have one last chance in their push to stay in the Copa Libertadores when they host Universidad Catolica. In a tight Group D, these two are separated by three points, Universidad leading and Boca third. Just like the group, another tight, low-scoring prediction could pass here with the teams scoring a combined 13 goals in five rounds.
Three winless outings (1D, 2L) place Boca Juniors at a disadvantage. A 1-1 draw at home to Cruzeiro in the last round means the Argentines’ fate is out of their hands and they must better the Brazilians’ result.
While they have that pressure, failure to score more than once in four of their last five games is also a concern.
Universidad Catolica are not the highest scorers around either, but three clean sheets in their last five matches mean they’ve compensated defensively.
They lost in the first meeting with Boca Juniors before going on a four-game unbeaten run, winning three. The most recent of them was a 2-0 victory at home to Barcelona SC.
Now the target is to avoid defeat, and they will safely pass to the Copa Libertadores knockouts. Here they will be targeting a third straight clean sheet in this competition and a fourth win.
The Chileans are, however, winless in the last two away games against Boca.

Our Boca Juniors vs CD Universidad Catolica Prediction
A low-scoring affair is expected as these two face off again in this group. In the first meeting Boca Juniors won 2-1 away from home, but Universidad haven’t lost again since that Matchday 1 defeat. One stat that has stood out, however, is the low-scoring nature of the teams’ recent outings in this group.
Universidad’s last two group games had two goals, while only four were scored in Boca Juniors’ three. Outside of their group stage performances, these teams have also been involved in low-scoring games. Our prediction for Boca Juniors v Universidad Catolica is for less than 2.5 goals.
