There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Guaraní leading Deportivo Capiatá by 7 points.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Guaraní are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Deportivo Capiatá is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
Guaraní form and stats
Guaraní have played 8 Division 1 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-3 (wins-draws-losses).
The home team returns to Estadio Defensores del Chaco after sharing the points with Sportivo San Lorenzo (placed 8th) on their last time out; the Division 1 game ended 0-0. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Deportivo Santani (1-2).
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Guaraní as they are travelling to their away game against General Diaz in the Division 1. That match is two days after this one.
The Guaraní fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 15 goals in 8 league matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 12 goals have been conceded.
Deportivo Capiatá form and stats
There's been little loot from Deportivo Capiatá's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the Division 1. Deportivo Capiatá, who have the most conceded goals (33) in Division 1, only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.
Deportivo Capiatá failed to get anything from their last game, a Division 1 home match vs Sol de America (placed 5th) that ended with defeat 0-4. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Sportivo San Lorenzo.
Deportivo Capiatá lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Deportivo Capiatá manager C. Recalde as the team has another away game coming up in only two days, this time against Olimpia.
The attacking power of Deportivo Capiatá when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 8 league matches away. In the opposite end, Deportivo Capiatá have conceded 14 goals in their away games.
Head 2 Head
The two sides played each other earlier this season: Deportivo Capiatá - Guaraní 1-2. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: 7 - 1 - 2 (Guaraní wins - draws - Deportivo Capiatá wins). As for goals, 6 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 4 had two or less.Top Goalscorers
