Bella Vista vs Cerrito betting preview: Even match expected

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.

Bella Vista form and stats

Bella Vista, who have the most conceded goals (14) in Segunda Division, have played three home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Bella Vista have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

The points were shared in Bella Vista's previous game, also at home. Visiting Cerrito travelled back with a point after a 0-0 scoreline. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Rentistas.

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 Bella Vista have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won 0 Drawn 1 Lost 1.

Bella Vista are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 4 goals in 3 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Bella Vista having conceded 9 goals here at Parque José Nasazzi so far. Bella Vista's defense is seriously deficient as 9 goals have been conceded in these matches.

Cerrito form and stats

Things could have gone better for Cerrito in their away games, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Bella Vista in their previous outing. The Segunda Division match ended in a draw 0-0. The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Torque.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Cerrito playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were 1 Cerrito win, 1 draw and 0 defeats.

Goals are few and far between in Cerrito's away games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. 3 goals have been conceded by Cerrito in these games.
