Cerro and Wanderers meet often enough to know each other's game well, especially their most recent meeting, a 1-1 draw back in September. This time, though, the shape of the game looks quite different, because both teams have just come through a stretch of inconsistent results. Cerro started the season better than anyone, taking 14 points from 8 matches, but they have clearly faded of late, winless in 3 straight and managing only a goalless draw against their opponents in their latest league outing. Wanderers, meanwhile, have 12 points from 8 matches, similar in terms of consistency, but they just closed things out with a 2-1 league win last time out and are unbeaten in 3 of their last 5. This one should play out as a measured exchange of blows. Both teams have scored at a similar rate this season (Cerro 9 goals, Wanderers 10), but they concede at a similar rate too. If Cerro come out attacking from the start and score first, Wanderers will have to sit deeper and wait for counterattacking chances, which would open up the second half. But if Wanderers score first, Cerro, winless in 3, will play with even more pressure, and the game could end without much separating them.
