Match Preview
Aucas prepare to host Macara at the home ground on July 26, 2026, with both sides eager to assert their credentials and claim a result that could define their Liga Pro season.

Both Aucas and Macara will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Liga Pro. Aucas have held their own of late, DDLWL in their last five reflecting a steady win rate of 46.67%. Macara have travelled reasonably well, DLDDD over their last five with a season win rate of 50%. The contrast in attacking output — 1.1 versus 1.37 goals per game — adds an extra layer of intrigue. Dusan Vlahovic followed up his hat-trick on Monday by completing the comeback to leave Fenerbahce four points behind Galatasaray, who snatched a late winner at Basaksehir on Friday.
How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. Aucas will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Macara will back themselves to cause problems on the break. That radar allows City to retain control, momentum and possession in games, pinning opponents back in the tempered style Guardiola favoured.
The fixture features no shortage of talent, and the league's top marksman E. Mero — 13 goals this term — will be one to watch. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. There is every reason to believe they will not just stop at just one new forward either.
Without the market to lean on, the contest feels genuinely open — and the outcome may come down to which side handles the occasion better. With the sides so closely matched, a 1-1 stalemate looks the most likely way this one ends. With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. Fulham's Antonee Robinson could be one of those, who would likely be a cheaper alternative to Hall, who has just enjoyed a breakout season with the Magpies.
