As the Liga Pro action heats up, fans are set for an exhilarating clash on June 28, 2025, as Barcelona Guayaquil welcomes Libertad to the Estadio Monumental Banco Pichincha in Guayaquil, Ecuador. With the stakes high and only a few matches left in the regular season, both teams will be eager to secure a vital win that could have massive implications on their standings.
Recent Form and Performance
Barcelona Guayaquil enters this matchup with a mixed bag of results in their last few outings. While they enjoyed a resounding 5-0 victory over Mushuc Runa in their most recent clash, they faced disappointments against strong opposition, losing to LDU Quito and Manta in previous fixtures. They currently sit in a solid second position in the standings, boasting 10 wins from 17 matches, and have netted a total of 27 goals while conceding 20. Their defensive record will be crucial going into this game, especially against a team like Libertad, which showcased its attacking prowess in a recent 4-1 victory over Técnico Universitario.
Libertad, on the other hand, has found itself struggling to find consistency in the regular season. Positioned 8th in the league, their form has been patchy, with six wins, five draws, and six losses in 17 matches. They have scored 24 goals but have also conceded 22, highlighting a defensive frailty that could be exploited by Barcelona's attacking unit. With two draws and three losses in their last five games, Libertad’s chances of pulling off an upset will heavily depend on their ability to perform away from home.
