An important duel in the bottom section of the Liga Nacional, with both Honduras Progreso and Platense experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 5th and the visitors in 4th place.
It's no vacation for neither Honduras nor Platense as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
