Atlético Progreso and Defensor Sporting meet in the Uruguayan league, with the hosts having just won 1-0 in their last match, while the visitors drew 3-3 in a high-scoring thriller last time out. But the overall picture of the two teams is clearly different: Progreso are on a two-match winning run and unbeaten in three, while Defensor have not won in five. Progreso have scored 13 and conceded 13 in 12 matches this season; their attack is not exactly fierce, but their defence holds up, especially at home where first halves tend to be low-scoring. Defensor, meanwhile, have conceded 23 goals in 12 matches, a figure that says their back line has problems, and playing away has not made it any better. This game is likely to be played at the hosts' tempo, but the first half may still be tense because Progreso build up slowly and often wait for chances late in the game. Defensor, who need to open up to chase a win, may leave gaps for the hosts to exploit in the second half.
