Cerro

LWLDDL

Cerro, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following the 1-2 Primera Division victory vs La Luz.

The only player to score from Cerro was Mariano Peralta (66'). Álvaro González (71') was the scorer for La Luz.

It’s not been often in recent times where Cerro have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Cerro have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 7 goals on the way. Having said that, we will just have to wait and see if that trend will persist in this upcoming game or not.
