Only a few games have been played in the Primera Division so far, with Cerro placed 11th and Fénix sitting in the 13th position.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Primera Division. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Progreso.

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.

Cerro form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Cerro's two home games in the Primera Division so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estadio Monumental Luis Tróccoli.

The fans are hoping that Cerro will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Primera Division game against Progreso (placed 2nd). Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Plaza Colonia.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Cerro as they are travelling to their away game against Liverpool in the Primera Division. That match is three days after this one.

At Estadio Monumental Luis Tróccoli, Cerro has the goal stats of 1-0 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

Fénix have had a generous will to share for some time now, running a streak of three draws in a row. It's three draws from Fénix's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.
