Cerro vs Progreso Live Stream, Predictions

📏 Form Guide

Cerro

LWDDDW

Cerro will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 2-1 Primera Division (Apertura) victory over Montevideo Wanderers.

The only scorer from Cerro was Enzo Larrosa (44', 50'). Nicolás Royón (41') scored for Montevideo Wanderers.

Cerro have been finding it hard to keep clean sheets of late, although they’ve also found ways to convert their own chances into goals. Looking at their last 6 games, Cerro have seen their goal breached in 5 of them while also managing to get on the scoresheet in 5 of those games.

Progreso

DDDWDL

Since a loss in their previous game against Racing Club in Primera Division (Apertura) action, Progreso and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

Progreso have attacked well in their most recent fixtures, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Progreso have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same outings. Nonetheless, we will just have to wait and see if such a trend shall be sustained in this next match.

↔️ Head to head

If we look at their past head to head meetings stretching back to 03/11/2019, it’s been all-even between these two clubs with Cerro winning 2 of those games, Progreso 2 and 2 being draws in regulation time.

An aggregate of 16 goals were produced between them throughout the course of those matches, with 8 for Villeros and 8 created by Los Gauchos Del Pantanoso. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.67.

The previous league game between the two was Primera Division match day 3 on 14/09/2024 which finished with the scoreline of Progreso 0-1 Cerro.

📋 Team News: Cerro

There aren’t many selection issues, with just a single fitness concern for the Cerro gaffer Gustavo Ferreyra to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust group of players. Yonatan Irrazábal (Cruciate ligament tear) will miss out.

ℹ️ Team News: Progreso

Due to a mostly available group, there is only a single fitness worry for the Progreso manager to be concerned about. Luis Maldonado (Muscle injury) misses out for this game.

💡 Prediction

In our opinion, Progreso may well find it hard to see themselves scoring against this Cerro team who we think will likely manage to score & go ahead.

We’re therefore anticipating a hard-fought 1-0 victory for Cerro at the end of the 90.

A close call.
