Cerro

LLLLWL

Cerro will be hoping to return to winning ways here after the 2-0 Intermediate Round loss in their previous game against Cerro Largo.

It’s been all too rare in recent games where Cerro have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Cerro have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 14 goals along the way. Let’s find out whether or not that trend can be continued on in this game.

Peñarol

WWDWLL

Following on from being beaten in their last game against Central Español in Intermediate Round action, Peñarol will be aiming to make amends here.

The numbers tell their own story, and Peñarol have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 6 goals in total. Defensively, Peñarol seem to have a bit of a soft underbelly.

👥 Head to head

Inspecting their past head-to-head meetings going back to 09/03/2024 shows that Cerro have won 1 of them and Peñarol 5, with the tally of drawn results being 0.

A sum of 20 goals were scored between the two sides in this period, with 4 of them for Villeros and 16 for Aurinegros. That’s an average goals per game figure of 3.33.

The previous league encounter featuring these clubs was Primera Division (Apertura) match day 7 on 21/03/2026 when it finished Peñarol 3-1 Cerro.

📰 Team News: Cerro

Nahuel Sena (Cruciate ligament tear) and Pablo Da Silveira (unknown injury) won’t be able to feature for Cerro boss Gustavo Ferreyra. Nicolás Bertocchi will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

✨ Prediction

We envisage that Cerro are dangerous enough to get a goal against this Peñarol lineup, but a single goal probably won’t quite be enough to avoid defeat.

Our selection here is for a 1-2 win for Peñarol after the 90. Could easily go either way, this.
