This match features two teams living in the basement of the Primera Division, Portuguesa holding 16th place and Llaneros de Guanare lying 20th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
It's no vacation for neither Portuguesa nor Llaneros de Guanare 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.
Portuguesa form and stats

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-2 away at Academia Puerto Cabello.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Portuguesa as they are travelling to their away game against Zulia in the Primera Division. That match is four days after this one.
