With the anxious opening fixture finished it’s time for the second Division 1 meeting of the season. Sportivo Trinidense are ready to confront Cerro Porteño in front of their home support.

This is a game between neighbours, usually meaning more stress and importance.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
