There’s so much to play for as Ecuadorian side Deportivo Cuenca heads to Brazil to face Santos in a Group D Copa Sudamericana fixture. Santos are bottom of the group with four points, trailing Cuenca by a point. At least three of the teams’ last three matches in the group ended in draws, and our prediction is along that same line.

This has to be one of the toughest groups in the tournament’s history, with only two wins registered across five rounds. Santos remain winless, having started off with defeat and drawing each of the last four.

This poor run of form isn’t confined to continental action; they are also coming from two straight domestic defeats. The latest of them was a 3-2 loss to Gremio.

Deportivo Cuenca are also winless in the last four matches in this group, bagging three points. The visitors are responsible for one of the two wins witnessed in this pool so far.

That was a 1-0 victory against Santos at home. As they look to complete a double over the Brazilians, the Ecuadorians will be buoyed by a seven-match unbeaten run, having managed three wins in the process.

They are coming off two straight draws, though, the most recent being a 1-1 outcome with LDU Quito in their domestic league. Their last away game in Copa Sudamericana ended 0-0 at Recoleta.

Our Santos vs CD Cuenca Prediction

Santos have drawn their two home matches in this competition. As they aren’t coming into this encounter on a strong form, home backing might be the only strength they carry here. They will still find this tough, given Cuenca’s own performances in recent times. 

The visitors carry into this encounter a seven-match unbeaten run, having managed four draws in the process. They will be targeting a second win over Santos but in this has the feel of shared spoils. Our prediction for Santos v Deportivo Cuenca is for a draw.
