Liga Primera pick from Miller: ART Municipal Jalapa can jump into Nicaraguan top three with win over Deportivo Ocotal

Ocotal is 6-1-1 against ART Municipal Jalapa in the last eight head to head encounters, with the over 2.5 goals hitting on the regular.

While ART Municipal Jalapa looks to be firmly entrenched inside the top six playoff spots in the Nicaraguan Primera Division, struggling Deportivo Ocotal is not, sitting in ninth with just nine points through 12 matches.

This can change, though, in a heartbeat, especially if Ocotal can find a way to win at home Wednesday night.

Ocotal is 6-1-1 against ART Municipal Jalapa in the last eight head to head encounters, with the over 2.5 goals hitting on the regular.

But that goal scoring form for both teams has dried up of late: Ocotal has been under 2.5 goals in four of its last five, with Municipal Jalapa five of five.

Ocotal has also won four in a row at home against its Wednesday opponent, while ART Municipal Jalapa is winless this campaign (0-4-2) on its travels.

So this game comes down to long term stats against recent ones, and which ones you have more faith in at the moment.

Take a shot with Deportivo Ocotal and the under, maybe in a 1-0 win.
