Insights:
  • Nacional Asunción have yet to win a game at home.
  • Libertad have not yet lost a game.

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

These are active days for the hosts, as they played only four days ago in the Copa Sudamericana. Thankfully the previous game, versus Guaireña, was also a home game here at Estadio Arsenio Erico. The away team is better rested.
