Diablos Rojos beat Mineros 81-75 in the LNBP on 2026-09-10. The away side held their nerve to secure the win. The final margin was six points, a narrow but decisive victory.
Mineros had shown some inconsistency in their recent outings. They lost 95-71 to Dorados on 2026-08-30 after winning 92-82 in the same fixture. Against Panteras they mixed results, winning 98-78 but losing 93-95. And here's the thing — their form was never quite steady enough to suggest an easy night.
Diablos Rojos came into this game with mixed results of their own. They lost 95-82 to Santos before beating them 97-87 in the return fixture. Against Abajeros they won 75-73 but dropped 81-73. By then you could see they were finding a way back into it, even if the results were not always clean.
The prediction from our side called for an away win with 50 per cent confidence. It came through. Diablos Rojos did not travel to make up the numbers, and they showed enough composure to see it out when the game tightened.
Mineros' recent run included a loss to Soles 78-71 on 2026-08-22, and that pattern of inconsistency carried through. Diablos Rojos also lost 95-84 to Lobos Platas on their last outing before this one. Both sides were not at their most reliable, which made the result all the more interesting.
The win moves Diablos Rojos forward in the standings while Mineros remain in a difficult patch. Six points separate them on the scoreboard, and that is what matters when you are fighting for position in this league.
