Monagas vs Everton Prediction
Monagas need to score at least three unreplied goals to retain any hopes of progressing and this could see them throw caution to the wind in search of goals. The Venezuelans have a strong record on home turf but their work will be cut out against an Everton side who hold all the aces.
The visitors are also strong in attack, but are unlikely to go all out. Instead, they will likely sit back and absorb the pressure while trying to catch Monagas out on the break.
We are predicting a narrow victory for Monagas, with goals to be scored at both ends.
Prediction: Monagas 2-1 Everton
