This set of previews covers two match of toluca with just 2:15
hours of difference between kick-offs and could be understand
that those are two different teams, but the reality is that is the
same team in two different competitions, this because of how
mexican tournament is structure and the bad planning of the
tournament schedule. Due to this fact Toluca part the team in two
sides, the strong side with the starting eleven fly to Chile and
Mexiquense (Toluca team in Primera "A") players reinforce by members
of Toluca will play the reclasification first leg game.

Colo Colo vs Toluca
Friday, November 17, 2006 02:15hrs (CET Time)
Stadium: Nacional (not Monumental due to a incident in last
sudamericana match)
Referee: Víctor H. Rivera (Peru)

This is a two leg series, the first play in Chile and the second
in Mexico.

Colo Colo

As different with mexican teams, the chile federation change the
match of next weekend to november 20, to help Colo Colo in the
semifinal against Toluca. Last league tournament, the team lost
and complicate their clasification to chilenian playoffs and this
put pressure to the team, but thanks to the federation aid they
can concentrate in this match at their full.

In southamerican tournaments the local status is a plus and many
times determinate the decision of the winner who can take more
advantage of that factor but in last Libertadores and current
sudamericana, the mexican teams have show they aren't and easy away
team. Colo Colo hasn't lost in away or in home and are looking
strong as they take out Gimnasia and La Plata.

Toluca

As Toluca has been recent (two seasons ago) champion of Mexican
Tournament, they have prefer to focus their forces for the
Sudamericana Cup that no mexican team has won before, the far they
have gone, is Pumas last year when they arrive to the final,
loosing in penalties to Boca Juniors.

Away they have only lost one match against san Lorenzo but then
on home show their power and advance to this stage, but apart
from that they have been a hard team to beat on away, also in
local tournament, as a show that mexican teams have improve in last
southamerican tournaments when playing away are the victory of
Pachuca in last match against Atletico Parananese 0-1. Also in
Libertadores Cup this year, Chivas beat Velez 1-2, and in stage
group beat Sao Paulo 1-2 (first home defeat for Sao Paulo in many
years), at the end Sao Paulo win the tournament but where unable
to beat chivas.

Toluca is a strong team when playing completely like in this
match and carries a strong offensive with FW Bruno Mariono and FW
vicente Sanchez (great left side players), and FW Carlos Esquivel
(in substitution of Antonio Naelson "Sinha" as he will be with
the team in mexico for reclasification). The team has a strong
defense with DF Paulo da Silva, DF Edgar Dueñas and GK Hernan
Cristante (Toluca has a positive winning percentage when he plays).
FW Bruno Marioni is the leader striker of Sudamericana cup.

Match: I expect a close match, with Toluca trying to get a good
result, as last round they suffer because of a bad result on
away. And Colo Colo trying to get a positive result for them as
they have done in the last rounds of Sudamericana, their good
results on home give this match a high parity of both teams. The
defense will be key on this match, Colo Colo will not concede so
easy.

Prediction:
For me the odds are really crazy to put almost no chance for
Toluca in this match, with a high 3.65 for straight away victory
and really tasty ods in DNB market. I expect a high fierce stand
of Toluca with focus on defense as is the philosophy of coach
Americo "Tolo" Gallego. So unders seems also nice



SORRY, But only 30 min before the games I post this.

Well, due to two penalties, the score get to 2-1 for Colo-Colo, a fair result for toluca, which last series where down 3-1 and win 2-0 in home to qualified to next round.
