Betting on Guarani
Guarani lost on matchday 1. Since then, it has decided to change its approach and has not fallen again. The team has gone 12 matches without a loss, placing it in third position, only two points behind Cerro Porteno.
The black and yellow team is also in the running for the title, making this match crucial. A win would put the team in second place, and it would be hot on the heels of Libertad, which is currently leading the way to the championship.
In the last two games, it has dropped points. It has drawn twice, including a thrilling 0-0 draw against Libertad, and a 1-1 tie against Ameliano, which it should have won, but a lapse in concentration in the 90th minute cost the team the victory. Nevertheless, it broke its string of draws with a 2-1 win over Danubio in the Copa Sudamericana.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Martin Rodriguez; Alcides Barbotte, Fernando Román, Thiago Servin, Miguel Benitez; Kevin Lezcano, Marcelo Palau, Dario Rios, Luis Fariña; Víctor Martínez, Enrique Javier Borja.
Betting on Club Cerro Porteno
Cerro Porteno has only suffered one defeat, but it was a painful one. Libertad thrashed it 5-0 in a match where nothing seemed to work for its players. However, Cerro Porteno has shown that it was just a bad day, as it has won three consecutive games since then.
The team is six points behind Libertad. Nevertheless, the team cannot take its eyes off Guarani, which is right behind it by just two points. Sometimes, Cerro Porteno gets relaxed too much, and the clearest example was its last game against Trinidense.
It was comfortably leading 3-0, but in the second half, it conceded two goals, and if its opponent had an extra five minutes, it could have tied the game. In the Copa Libertadores, it lost 2-1 against Palmeiras after taking the lead. Besides, it suffered the same fate as against Trinidense, a bad momentum that the team needs to break.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Jean; Enzo Giménez, Piris da Motta, Pedro Álvarez, Gabriel Báez; Claudio Aquino, Rafael Carrascal, Damián Bobadilla, Antonio Galeano; Fernando Fernandez, Braian Samudio.
JefeBet Prediction
The match is going to be intense, since both teams know they need the points to catch up with Libertad, which is starting to pull away. Considering both teams’ current form, at JefeBet we believe they will split the points in the upcoming Guarani vs Cerro Porteno.
Prediction: Tie (GUA 2-2 CER).
