Sol de América hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 19 points and a 10th position in the Division 1 table. Visiting Guaireña holds 6th place with 27 pts.
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Copa Sudamericana match only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Universidad Catolica, was also a home game here at Estadio Luís Alfonso Giagni. The away team is better rested.
