Season ticket holders at Estadio Luís Alfonso Giagni haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Sol de América languishing in the 10th position so far. The guesting Nacional Asunción will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
- Sol de América has the fewest scored goals in the first half (10) in Division 1
- Nacional Asunción has the fewest matches over the total-line (9) in Division 1
The hosts América saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the Division 1. That game was an away game at Cerro Porteno, so at least Sol de América are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
