Insights:
  • Guaraní have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Libertad have the fewest conceded goals (15) in Division 1

Guaraní form and stats

When playing at home in the Division 1, Guaraní have managed 4 wins, 4 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 11 games. Guaraní are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Estadio Rogelio Lorenzo Livieres, having lost their two previous games here.

Guaraní are returning here after visiting Sportivo Luqueño and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. Ledesma and Guillén scored the goal(s). Finally, a league win after four matches without.

Ahead of that game, a home victory hosting Huracan in the Copa Sudamericana.

The Guaraní fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 14 in 11 matches. Guaraní have conceded 14 in these home matches.

Libertad form and stats

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 7 wins, 1 draw and only 3 losses in the Division 1.
