This Primera Division fixture is a game where both Danubio and Central Español need points to shore up their standing in the table, with the hosts sitting 13th and the visitors 16th, not far apart. The two sides' most recent matches ended in opposite ways: Danubio had just thrashed their cup opponent 6-0, while Central Español were themselves thrashed in the cup 0-6. Danubio still struggle to win in the league, but their first halves at home tend not to go badly, as they share possession with their opponents and create some chances from wide play. Central Español, meanwhile, have lost match after match, their defence leaking badly and their league scoring very low, even though they do get some chances from set pieces. This game is likely to see the hosts forced to take the initiative and attack, while the visitors are likely to drop back, defend and wait for counter-attacking or set-piece moments. If Central Español keep conceding easily as they have lately, the game could end close or with the hosts edging a win, but if the visitors hold firm, the game will become more stifling and end in a draw.
