This simple ansatz provides a good overall description of the data throughout the deconfinement phase until near the critical temperature with just two parameters. One of the parameters is consistent with perturbation theory while a second, non perturbative, parameter provides a numerical value of the condensate which is close to existing zero and finite temperature determinations.}, organization = {This work is supported in part by funds provided by the Spanish DGI and FEDER funds with grant no.
