Cerro Porteño form and stats

Cerro Porteño have played three Division 1 home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Porteño are returning here after guesting Fortaleza in a Copa Libertadores game and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Jean, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 9.65 out of 10 in that game. Jean saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.

A 2-2 draw away in the Division 1 before that, with Olimpia the opponent.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Cerro Porteño as they have a new game in only three days, a Copa Libertadores match thankfully also at home. Fortaleza are visiting.

At Estadio General Pablo Rojas, Cerro Porteño has the goal stats of 3-3 (for/against) from 3 league fixtures.

Sportivo Luqueño form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Division 1 for Sportivo Luqueño with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts.

Charpentier scored in Sportivo Luqueño's previous match, the home game against Resistencia that ended 1-0. That win felt nice as this team had gone five league rounds without winning. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Florentín when Charpentier scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.

Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Guarani's place.

It's early days yet, but Sportivo Luqueño has scored 3 and conceded 6 goals from their travels in the league so far (3 games).

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Porteño five wins, two draws and Sportivo Luqueño three victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
