A mid-table clash in the Primera Division where both Defensor Sporting and Danubio have been unable to find a win in the league of late. This game is therefore one where both sides need points to move away from the lower reaches of the table. Defensor Sporting, the home side, lost at home 2-3 in their last match, and their season overall has not been good, with more draws and defeats than wins. As for Danubio, the visitors, they have not won any league game at all across their last seven matches, but they have also not lost in three straight, scoring only two goals throughout that spell. This looks likely to be a game where both sides are cautious and wait for a mistake from the other rather than opening up and attacking each other. If Defensor Sporting score first, Danubio will have to open up and trade blows, which would change the shape of the game immediately. But if Danubio can hold out until the later stages, the game is likely to end tight and finish as a draw.
