Wanderers form and stats

Wanderers have collected 14 points from their Primera Division home games so far after 4-2-2. Two home wins in a row for Wanderers bring valid hopes of a third.

The Wanderers goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 187 minutes without conceding a goal in the Primera Division.

Wanderers enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at River Plate's place. The match ended 1-0.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Liverpool in a game that was won 1-0.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Wanderers have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 18 matches with the results: Won eight, drawn four and lost six.

The Wanderers fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 8 matches. As for guarding their own goal, Wanderers have only let in 4 goals at home.

Cerro Largo form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Cerro Largo so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose). In general it has been a productive period now for Cerro as they haven't lost any of their last eleven games.

There were no winners in Cerro Largo's previous match, a Primera Division home game that ended 1-1 vs Boston River. As mentioned above, Cerro drew the match against Boston River. Manager L. Núñez Maciel brought on L. Di Yorio to rescue the draw from a losing position and it worked.

Before that one, a nice away victory 4-1 at Fenix.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 22 similar matches played by Cerro in our archives, and the results are: eight wins for Cerro Largo, six draws and eight defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Cerro as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 8 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Cerro Largo's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 12 goals from these trips. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
