Cerro Porteño and Rubio Ñú meet in the Division 1 league, with the hosts sitting 8th on 14 points from 10 matches, while the visitors are 10th with 8 points from the same number of games. Both still need points to climb out of the mid-table zone, so this is a match where both sides want a positive result just as much. Cerro Porteño are unbeaten in 5 straight matches in all competitions and just won 1-0 in their previous league game. Rubio Ñú, meanwhile, are on a 2-match losing run, and their defence is a clear problem after conceding 20 goals in 10 matches, while the hosts have conceded only 10 in the same number of games. The pattern should see the hosts dominate possession and gradually grind the game down, because Rubio Ñú are not particularly solid when defending in their own half. If Cerro Porteño score first, the game will flow even more in one direction, and the chances of the hosts closing it out with a win are high.
