Danubio and Cerro Largo meet in the Uruguayan league, with both sitting near the bottom of the table and still searching for their first league win of the season. This game is therefore one where both sides need points to climb out of the lower reaches of the table. Danubio have not won any of their last five matches, but drew three of them, and they come off a 0-1 defeat last time out. Their defence has not been solid either, judging by the number of goals they have conceded in the league. Cerro Largo, meanwhile, won their most recent cup match, but they too have yet to win in the league, and they had lost 0-2 in two straight matches before that. The pattern of play for both suggests they are still not creating many chances. Danubio have slightly more possession and put about three shots on target per game over their last ten matches, while Cerro Largo get more shots on target but also allow their opponents a similar number on target. This looks like a game of trading blows where neither side can press the other for long spells, and goals are more likely to come from mistakes than from well-organised attacks. The first thing to watch after kick-off is which side settles first, because if either team takes an early lead, the game will open up immediately.
