Jalapa hosts Diriangen in round 16 of Nicaraguan Liga Primera Clausura. The match will be played on Sunday, April 12th at Estadio Alejandro Ramos (Jalapa)
Currently, Jalapa is in fifth place in the standings of Nicaraguan Liga Primera, having 22 points in its assets. Today's hosts are eight points behind the second place, and it will be hard to cling to it, but the situation in the top six does not look obvious now. Jalapa plays just fine in its arena – the team suffered only one defeat in seven home games. In the first round match, today's hosts managed to cling to a draw, although Diriangen acts very well on its pitch. I think that Jalapa will be able to score points in the upcoming match.

Diriangen also holds a cool season - the team is on the second line in the standings, lagging behind the leader in the person of Managua by three points. Of course, the visitors have plenty of motivation, but they do not play very well away - Diriangen managed to win only three out of seven away games. It seems to me that the visitors have little chance of confident success since Jalapa is not going to give up without a fight, and Diriangen experienced certain difficulties in the first round match.
It seems to me that the favorite is not as obvious as it seems at first glance. Yes, Diriangen is more motivated than ever, but the same can be said about Jalapa. Diriangen often has problems away, and Jalapa is good at home. I think the home team will at least not lose.
Prediction for the match: Jalapa to win with +0.5 handicap
