Pacific FC vs Atletico Ottawa Preview and Team News
Pacific FC Team News
Pacific FC take on Atletico Ottawa in the Canadian Premier League on Saturday. Pacific come into this game on the back of a goalless draw against Valour, prior to which they had suffered consecutive losses, against Forge and Cavalry.
Having scored just three goals in their last five outings (and none in their last three), the home team will have to struggle a lot to put the ball in the net against Ottawa’s tight-knit defence.
One point on the road.

Pacific are known to hold the ball for far too long in their own defensive half, and this has led to their downfall in their last three matches. More worrying than the fact that Pacific have conceded the most penalties this season (2) is that they have not scored even one goal in their last three outings. Currently, Pacific are ranked sixth in the league table and do not have any worrying injuries.
Pacific FC predicted lineup vs Atletico Ottawa (4-3-3): Anchor; Chung, Machado, Ndom, Lajeunesse; Young, Lagerfeldt, Keshavarz; Bustos, Montejano, Heard.
Atletico Ottawa Team News
Atletico Ottawa share just one fact with their opponents – they too do not have any injured players in their ranks – while everything else sets them apart from the latter. Ottawa are currently the leaders of the league table, and seem all set to be the champions this season if they continue this form.
Ottawa lead the league with 24 goals in nine matches (W5 D3 L1), driven by top scorer Samuel Salter’s seven goals.

The home team are known for their expansive wing play, and this often results in them quickly turning defence into attack and creating chances in the attacking third. Ottawa also like to play short passes, with David Rodríguez being ranked 1st in big chances created in the competition (8).
Samuel Salter and the aforementioned Rodriguez’s contributions may explain why Ottawa have scored a whopping 12 goals in their last 5 matches. They usually lineup in a 3-4-3 formation, which gives them good control in defence and wide spaces in attack. Ottawa’s xG is an impressive 1.71, which is second only behind Cavalry FC in the league.
Atletico Ottawa predicted lineup vs Pacific FC (3-4-3): Ingham; Walker, Abatneh, Kozlovskiy; Dos Santos, Aparicio, Castro, Antinoro; Rodríguez, Tabla, Salter.
Pacific FC vs Atletico Ottawa Prediction
- Pick: Atletico Ottawa to win
- Odds: -109 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Pacific FC 1-3 Atletico Ottawa
Ottawa are the outright favourites to win this game. The long balls that they employ make it hard for their opponents to get time to organise themselves well. Also, the fact that Ottawa use the 3-4-3 formation should give them an advantage over Pacific’s weaknesses on the flanks.
Attack-wise, Ottawa have scored 24 goals so far, as compared to Pacific’s measly 7. This gives them a clear advantage too.

There have been a total of 21 games recorded between these teams in the past, out of which Ottawa have remained unbeaten in 14. Pacific have beaten them on just seven occasions in the past.
Even at this venue, which is not home for Ottawa, they have beaten Pacific four times out of their last six encounters, in which one game was drawn.
The league leaders are in excellent form, being unbeaten in four out of their last five matches, and will be expected to carry it forward in this match. Historically, they have held an advantage over Pacific.
Pacific FC vs Atletico Ottawa Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both teams to score
- Odds: -196 (20Bet)
We expect to see both teams getting onto the scoresheet (BTTS) in this game, as was seen when they met each other as recently as early May. In that match, Ottawa beat Pacific by a 3-1 scoreline, and much of the same will be expected here. Three out of the last five meetings between these teams have seen BTTS, which shows a proclivity for such things to happen.
Pacific, despite not having scored in their last three games, may get an opening here due to Ottawa’s all-out attacking approach. This strategy often leaves gaps in the Ottawa defence that Pacific can exploit.
Moreover, both these teams have conceded the same number of goals this season – 15 – which supports the chance for Pacific to score. Nonetheless, this is expected to be Ottawa’s game through and through.
