In the Nicaraguan Primera Division, Miller picks Chinandenga FC vs. Juventus Managua with playoff hopes on the line

Sixth place might not sound like anything great, but it is the final playoff spot in the Clausura, and a win for either team this afternoon could be a huge boost.

While both Chinandega FC and Juventus Managua are struggling in the Nicaraguan Primera Division, there is still a ray of light shining down on both: the sixth place spot in the table.

Sixth place might not sound like anything great, but it is the final playoff spot in the Clausura, and a win for either team this afternoon could be a huge boost. Coming into today, Juventus has the final spot (13 points) on goal difference, but Chinandega is just a point behind in eighth.

Juventus dominated this matchup from April 2017 until the end of April 2019, going 7-1-1, inflicting a few heavy defeats along the way. But the last three games have seen two 1-1 draws and a 1-0 win for Chinandega.

Tough to call this toss up, but I might take the good odds for the draw.
