The Cerrito & Villa Española managers R. Marcenaro Nieves and S. Santín Francia are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Segunda Division league table.
It's no vacation for neither Cerrito nor Villa Española as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
Cerrito form and stats
5-4-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Segunda Division numbers at home for Cerrito, who have the most scored goals (35) in Segunda Division, so far this season.
It's back home for Cerrito, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Rocha away with the result 2-1. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Albion in a game that was won 2-1.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Cerrito as they are travelling to their away game against Atenas in the Segunda Division. That match is three days after this one.
The Cerrito fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 17 goals in 10 league matches. Cerrito are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Charrúa in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 8 from 10 matches.
Villa Española form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most points (19) away in Segunda Division, on their Segunda Division travels is 5 wins, 4 draws and 1 defeat. One point away has become something of a habit for Española who have played out draws in their last three away games.
J. Moreira was the last player to score for the away team. Española haven't scored a league goal in the last 195 minutes.
Española might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Racing proved too strong as Villa Española slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Estadio Obdulio Varela. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Juventud that ended 0-0.
A new game in only three days for Española, the Segunda Division home match versus Tacuarembo. Busy days.
Española find the net regularly in their away games. 14 goals from 10 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (7 so far).
Head 2 Head
The dueling parties have met before this season: Villa Española - Cerrito 1-2. Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Cerrito, two draws and five wins for Villa Española. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.Top Goalscorers
