Delfin vs Libertad Prediction & Betting Tips (2 September)

As Delfín SC prepares to host Libertad FC on August 30 at Estadio Jocay, the stakes are high in this Liga Pro clash between two sides with contrasting trajectories. Delfín, currently languishing in 12th place, has struggled to find consistency, with just six wins from 26 matches and a concerning goal difference of -15. Their recent form has been turbulent, suffering a 0–3 defeat to El Nacional and a 3–1 loss to Orense. Coach Patricio Urrutia, whose win rate with the club hovers around 26%, will be banking on midfield dynamo Erick Mendoza and the creative spark of Edison Vega to turn the tide. Mendoza, with eight goals this season, remains Delfín’s most potent threat.

Libertad, meanwhile, sits comfortably in 5th place and has shown resilience in recent outings. Under the guidance of Juan Carlos León, the team has amassed 41 points, boasting 11 wins and a goal tally of 40. Their thrilling 3–2 victory over Aucas last week showcased their attacking prowess, with Eber Caicedo continuing his fine form—five goals and one assist in his last seven appearances. Carlos Arboleda has also been instrumental, leading the team with six assists. Libertad’s squad depth, featuring the likes of Wilter Ayoví and Diego Ávila, gives them a tactical edge, especially in transitions and wide play.



Historically, Delfín has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning three of the last five meetings, including a 1–0 away victory in May. However, recent defensive lapses—conceding nine goals in their last five matches—raise concerns about their ability to contain Libertad’s fluid attack. Libertad, on the other hand, has scored nine goals in their last five games, averaging 1.8 goals per match. Their away form has been solid, with wins over Mushuc Runa and Orense, suggesting they won’t be intimidated by the trip to Manta.

Given the current dynamics, a 2–1 scoreline in favor of Delfín is a bold yet plausible prediction. While Libertad enters with momentum, Delfín’s desperation for points and historical dominance in this matchup could fuel a spirited performance. Expect Mendoza to find the net, possibly from a set piece, while Delfín’s defense will need to hold firm against Caicedo’s incursions. A late winner from Delfín—perhaps through a counterattack—could seal the deal, offering a much-needed morale boost and a glimmer of hope in their campaign.

• Summary: Delfín is going head to head with Libertad starting on 2 Sept 2025 at 00:00 UTC at Estadio Jocay stadium, Manta city, Ecuador. The match is a part of the LigaPro Serie A, Primera Etapa .
