Cerro

LLLLWL

Cerro will be hoping for a better result after a 2-0 Intermediate Round loss in their previous game against Cerro Largo.

It’s been all too rare in recent games where Cerro have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Cerro have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 14 goals along the way. Let’s find out whether or not that trend can be continued on in this game.

Peñarol

WWDWLL

Since a loss in their previous game against Central Español in Intermediate Round competition, Peñarol and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.

The numbers tell their own story, and Peñarol have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 6 goals in total. Defensively, Peñarol seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Looking over their past head-to-head clashes dating back to 09/03/2024 shows us that Cerro have won 1 of these and Peñarol 5, with the number of drawn games being 0.

A combined total of 20 goals were scored between them during those clashes, with 4 of them for Villeros and 16 coming from Aurinegros. The average number of goals per game works out to 3.33.

ℹ️ Team News: Cerro

Nahuel Sena (Cruciate ligament tear) and Pablo Da Silveira (unknown injury) won’t be available for Cerro boss Gustavo Ferreyra. Nicolás Bertocchi is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

🔮 Prediction

We envisage that Cerro are dangerous enough to get a goal against this Peñarol lineup, but a single goal probably won’t quite be enough to avoid defeat.

Our selection here is for a 1-2 win for Peñarol after the 90. Could easily go either way, this.
