Torque form and stats

Three Primera Division home games done for Torque, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches.

No payout for Torque in their previous match, an away game at Rentistas that ended in defeat 0-3. Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Palacios for missing a penalty kick versus Rentistas in the 14th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

Before that, Torque drew at home versus Deportivo Maldonado.

Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Torque having conceded 8 goals here at Estadio Centenario so far.

Liverpool form and stats

Liverpool are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Primera Division, having played 3 games and collected 5 points (1 win, 2 draws and 0 losses).

Liverpool's previous game was their home loss versus Penarol (0-1). That defeat was their first after four consecutive league rounds winning points.

Prior to that match, a home win 3-0 against Cerrito.

Liverpool have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 4 goals have been scored. It's not easy to score on Liverpool as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
