Betting on Club Cerro Porteno
Cerro Porteno is one of the top teams leading the Paraguayan League, currently in second place. It has achieved excellent numbers in 17 matchdays, with only one match where this team couldn’t get any points. It has secured ten wins and six draws, totaling 36 points. Although a win wouldn’t move it up in the standings, it could slice the distance with Libertad down to five points.
Cerro Porteno has been one of the hottest scoring teams this entire league season, averaging 1.9 goals per match, second only to Libertad. The most recent match against a nearby foe, Resistencia, resulted in a 1-2 win, played away from home. Moreover, this year, it hasn’t lost a single match as hosts.
Possible Lineup (3-5-2): Jean; Eduardo Brock, Alberto Espinola, Gabriel Báez; Claudio Aquino, Federico Carrizo, Piris da Motta, Rafael Carrascal, Damián Bobadilla; Fernando Fernández, Robert Morales.
Betting on Club General Caballero
However, for General Caballero, the story is quite different. The team finds itself in the lower half of the standings, in ninth place, and has five games with two wins, a draw, and two losses. Against Libertad and Guaraní, teams that surround Cerro Porteno in the ranking, this team had losses of 1-0 and 3-1, respectively. In addition, General Caballero is one of the three clubs that has received the most goals against this season.
In the historic Cerro Porteno vs General Caballero match, they have faced each other 13 times, with a majority dominance of the home team, who has won on seven occasions, while the visitors have won twice, along with four draws.
However, very few matches have ended with General Caballero scoring no goals, and considering the effectiveness of Clementino González, he may be one of the forwards who will score in this match. Ultimately, the numbers lean more towards losing or drawing rather than winning.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Juanito Alfonso; Miller Mareco, Wildo Alonso, Pablo Adorno, Manuel Romero; Franco Lautaro, José Manuel Vera, Juan José Heinze; Guillermo Hauche, Clementino González, Jorge Luis Sanguina.
JefeBet Prediction
In the upcoming match between Cerro Porteno vs General Caballero, it’s obvious that the home team will win, but not without overcoming a tough challenge from the visitors. Cerro Porteno has only been defeated by one team this season, and General Caballero doesn’t stand a chance.
Prediction: Both teams score (CCP 3-1 CGC)
