Motagua has not had any success in this competition with losses in all five previous matches and only their last was by a single goal. So it would seem stupid to back them right? I'm banking on LA being a little tight in a hostile atmosphere with a win needed to advance to the KO stages. LA has not won on the road in two tries during the group stages. Even if they should sneak out a win, I think it's by an odd goal only and that could work for a half stakes win here. The pitch for this one also figures to be an issue as I haev read that it was water logged heavily by Hurricane Jova.
