With their 5 point advantage in the league table, Villa Española fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Cerrito.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

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

Villa Española form and stats

Villa Española have played three Segunda Division home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Estadio Obdulio Varela.

Villa Española manager D. Santín and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Rentistas in the Segunda Division. Ahead of that match, Villa Española won a home game hosting Villa Teresa (1-0).

Villa Española have scored 2 league goals here from 3 matches, not a lot. Villa Española have conceded 3 in these home matches.

Cerrito form and stats

Cerrito are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Segunda Division, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). With three draws in a row for Cerrito the feeling in the team is perhaps one of both relief and disappointment.

There were no winners in Cerrito's previous match, a Segunda Division home game that ended 2-2 vs Central Español. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Rentistas.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Cerrito's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. As opposed to that, Cerrito have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The most recent history between these sides is the Cerrito - Villa Española 1-1 played earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last eight meetings): Villa Española won 5 games, 3 matches ended with a draw and Cerrito has 0 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 4 / 4
