Cerrito form and stats

Cerrito have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the Segunda Division. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.

The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Sud America in the Segunda Division last time out and are looking for a win here. A 3-3 draw away before that, with Racing the opponent.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cerrito have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won one time, drawn zero and lost zero.

The manager R. Marcenaro Nieves will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Albion in only three days.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Cerrito here at Estadio Charrúa in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (2 from 3 games). Cerrito have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 1 goal.

Tacuarembó form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Segunda Division for Tacuarembó, who have the fewest scored goals (2) in Segunda Division, with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts. Tacuarembó have had a generous will to share for some time now, running a streak of three draws in a row.

Tacuarembó haven't scored a league goal in the last 285 minutes. Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Tacuarembó goalkeeper Kevin Axel Larrea Alzamendi is eager to challenge this, with his 278 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Tacuarembó played 0-0 against Racing in their previous match. Before that, Tacuarembó travelled to Juventud and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

Tacuarembó are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, zero draws and three defeats. From a total of three matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Tacuarembó are hosting Sud America in the Segunda Division only three days away.

Goals are few and far between in Tacuarembó's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. Tacuarembó have conceded 3 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Cerrito won six games, zero matches ended with a draw and Tacuarembó has four wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: one / nine
