It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Nacional and Torque.
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.

Nacional travelled for their previous game, a trip to Penarol that ended 0-0.
In the match before that, Nacional hosted Rentistas and drew the game 2-2.There will be little rest for Nacional after this match as they are travelling to Villa Espanola for a Primera Division game in only three days.

Torque are travelling after their nice 5-0 home win in the Primera Division against Villa Espanola. As mentioned above, Torque was the only team on the pitch versus Villa Espanola in their previous game, winning 5-0. This could be a tougher task.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Deportivo Maldonado wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.Torque have another game away in just four nights, a Primera Division fixture against Cerrito. A gruelling programme for the visiting team!
