Guaireña have only collected 11 points from their away games in the Division 1, after 2-5-4 (11 played).

The manager Theiler was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Estadio Parque del Guairá. Guaireña suffered a 1-2 loss to Tacuary.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Libertad wasn't a success with a 3-4 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Guaireña playing away, we found 7 games. Results were 0 away wins, 3 draws and 4 home wins.
