Guayaquil City welcome Universidad Catolica on Sunday, Jul 26 at 10:00 PM in a Serie A fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Guayaquil City come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Universidad Catolica, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 0D 3L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Guayaquil City face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Universidad Catolica have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Guayaquil City won 1–4.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Guayaquil City a slight edge, but Universidad Catolica are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
